Appreciate any help, just purchased a set of Bola B1 alloys 9.5 / ET30. Unfortunately when trying to fit the fronts are catching the calipers (was told these were the correct fitment)?

can anyone recommend a spacer size?

Thanks in advance :smthumbup

Are they new? Where did you purchase them from?

I always thought with that style wheel and fitment 6mm spacers were needed

Hi mate, I purchased from demon tweeks was told these would be a direct fit?

Would I be safe to use 6mm spacers on the original studs?

You sure they're 9.5? I had these wheels (in my avatar in fact...), and while the spokes came fairly close, they fitted fine without spacers.

Just checked and definitely 9.5 / ET30. strange as I see most run this set up?

I was under the impression the B1 would clear brembos too, I'm friends with the owner/supplier of Bola wheels so I could ask if you want me to... :smthumbup

I know that the rota GTR similar shape need the spacers with brembo so assumed these would too.

get a big brake kit or hub centric spacers with extended bolts

Appreciated, confused as most run the same set up but definitely don't fit, Bola confirmed the order and agreed with the fitment before purchase?

I think the big brake kit might be a little excessive but im looking into spacers as we speak. :smthumbup

Just thought I would try a refit all sorted, no problems - don't ask!!!!!
