Hi,
I purchased a set of these wheels about two months ago for my 2013 JCW and had to use wheel spacers to clear my Brembo front calipers. Other than a JCW Gen 1, all Gen 2 JCW's with Brembo will require spacers.

 

Yes, you're correct! Although these came off my R53 JCW with the red JCW Gen-1 brakes (2-piston), I remember reading that these will require a spacer to work with the Gen 2 4-Piston JCW brakes.

 

Ultimately, I found the R105's to be a fantastic set of wheels. I also am running 215/40 18's and have no clearance issues at all. If you were a little earlier with your sale I most likely would have purchased your set as mine ran well over $2k with new tires, center caps and TPMS. You're offering them here at one heck of a deal for someone.

 

Yup, I went with a different set of JCW wheels on my R53. I’ve always liked the R105. Fortunately for the buyer, these came with the car and so did the tires so I’m willing to give a smoking deal for them

For any R56 buyers I actually have a set of 4 H&R 15mm spacers with extended bolts (14mm so only works on late R53 and R56) I can sell additional to the wheels if interested. That will provide adequate BBK clearance on the fJCW brakes and give a flush fitment front and rear.
