Will 18x8 BBS RE fit on GS430/GS450h?
I'm thinking about getting 18x8 BBS RE's for my GS450h, but am wondering about 3 things.
1. Does the 2007 GS450h come with the same "performance brake" hardware as the 2006 GS430?
2. The GS450h has large front brake calipers and the clearance between the outer face of the caliper housing and the inside spoke area of the OEM wheels is very small (half in inch maybe?). I don't want to use a spacer. Do BBS RE's have enough clearance to fit on GS430s/GS450hs?
3. Are the tire-pressure-sensing valves (for tire pressure monitoring system) used in the GS430/450h compatible with BBS RE's?

BBS maybe my favorite wheel company, excellent choice.

I want to say yes. I just oredered a set of RE's for a friends 2003 Audi S4 and he retro'ed Porsche Cayenne Turbo Calipers onto his car.... We will see.... BBS tells me the RE has one of the most BBK friendly back pads of all their wheels...
