These wheels are still for sale. A local Nissan Dealer put a mark on them so I'm having them powder-coated to new. The guy is a professional, I'll post pictures when the job is finished.

LMK if you have any questions.

You know how I was having problems? My rotors look like this;



Except it's drilled/slotted, but you can see the hub right? Notice how it caves in only giving the hub around .5 inches.

Now look at this rotor;



Notice how it doesn't cave in? That .5 inches I think is just enough space I need to clear the BBK. Because the rotor above caves in makes my wheels not clear properly making me need unnecessary spacers which gives me vibrations throughout the car.

I finally solved this piece of **** by myself, THANK GOD!!!

Not your problem my friend.... the brake calipers are fixed radial mount so if the mounting line of the rotor was wrong, the caliper would not be able to be even bolted on. Your issue is your wheels do not have the proper offset to clear your brakes. The offsets you list should have no problem clearing factory BBK....

?? My caliper is bolted on, lol. I do not have factory OEM rotors, so I am going to buy them. I measured my offsets already and they ae +35/+37, so the problem is my rotor, not the wheels.

I believe mikelr is correct. The caliper bolts directly to the spindle, it is a fixed position that is independant of the rotor. Different rotors must have the exact same center line or the caliper will not fit over them. Those offsets listed definatly clear the stock brakes as well.

The only possible thing that could change the offset as you say is the actualy thickness of the rotor hat. If one rotor hat was significanlly thicker than another, it can change your offset, but I believe that thickness is standard as well.

Yea, the thickness is what I am referring too. I'm going to try and meet up with somewhere around Central NJ to see if they want to test-fit my Volks over their BBK.

So I should buy the stock rotors?
