there seems to be as much room as i had on my v6 ones with 15s, the 4 pot calipers must be much better for clearance

yes. the wheels are also specially designed for clearance for big brakes like compomotives and the pro-races.

oh and they might be getting a bit lighter tomorrow, gonna see if i can machine a few mm off the back of the wheel, et35 does not look good, especially with no tyre
