Would JCW Wheels Fit?

Posted a thread on the regular JCW section as I am trading my 2011 JCW hardtop and buying a 2013 GP2 from Carmax with 490 miles for $34,900- sweet deal I think. The guy bought it-paid cash and traded. Odd I think, but whatever. Anyway, i like my championship matte black rims and want to slap on some aftermarkets and trade my car and slap mine on the GP...will they fit? This is why I was asking if anyone knew of a place to buy cheap wheels as I am just trading the JCW.

I already found the answer to this question...they won't as the calipers are much bigger on the GP than the JCW. Ahhh well. Now I must find some cooler rims to swap out with the GP's as I find them hideous.

I have a set of Challenge Spoke wheels installed for the winter, they need a spacer and extended studs to install on the front.

glmini is correct the challenge wheels won't fit without spacers.

Check out the NM wheels as I put them on to use daily and they clear the brakes perfect, and where much lighter.
