I already order the Stoptech BBK for my MCS and now i'm looking for some wheels that fit on my car...
I saw the Fliks WASP and ARTIC and they look very good.... Also the Motegi FF7 and DP6, Anyone have any idea if these wheels will fit using BBK's????

Depends on the actual rim design. Only a few of us have Stoptech brakes. Monkey_Boy reported recently that his Stoptech brakes did not fit with his Kosei K1 racing 17x7.5 rims with +45 mm offset. They'll need spacers which is common.

You're taking your chances because the wheel vendors won't know what will fit and the brake vendor won't have tested the brake with all the different possible wheels in 17".
If they know of a specific combo that works then great.

Check out the several good brake threads we have going right now and the discussion.

The appearance of the rim has little to do with clearance. If there is room then you get to use no spacers.

If you do get the stoptech front big brake kit then what are you doing with the rear brakes to balance out the brake bias front to rear. Increasing only the front brake bias isn't going to produce the best braking response/stopping power.

 

We've installed both SSR GT-7 and BBS RV 17 x 7.5 over stoptech brakes with no spacers.
