Can TunersNation brackets make Evo brakes bolt-on?

Quoting Garfield Wright:
A 7.5" wide wheel will not clear the calipers. I could be wrong but that's a .5" difference ~13mm.



it will as long as the offset is correct. If you look at the link I posted there is a pic of a 2G eclipse with brembos and Evo V wheels. They are the same OZ wheels that came on the 99' GS 10th anniversary. But they are 17x7.5.

 

Unless you're talking about a different link, these are Evo 8 Enkei's 17x8+38

they were further than page one.

"This is the EVO5 wheel on my car. It's 17 * 7.5 and off set is +38."

Just a heads-up, it was recently discovered that Evo8 front brakes are basically a direct swap on to FD RX-7s. That should mean that if a bracket were to be built for Evo brakes, it may also work with the FD (and FC Turbo-II) 4-pot front brakes. While they aren't as big as the Evo pieces, they are very inexpensive on the used market. I picked up a set of the front calipers for under $100 a while back as a spare.
