Hey Guys,

Just wondering if ROTA Grids will clear the stock brake caliper on a '05 GD3??
The size I'm going for are 15x6.5 +38.

My previous rims, XXR 501s, left less than a 1mm gap between the back of the spoke and the caliper.

This is the culprit:

This is the new rim:

I've been told that the design does allow for big brake setups but I cant get a guarantee AND theres no chance of me getting a test fit.

Thanks in advance,
Melvin

unfortunately i cant guarantee anything either but I've been told that 35-42 was good for a 7" wide rim.
but those rims look like they are bent to make room for the calipers.

heres another thread (http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?13750-Stud-patter-and-offset-of-Jazz)
they say that it should be ok.

what where the specs of the old rim?
