Default What wheel will clear TT BBK

I know this has been discussed a few times but I cant find anything on it for some reason. I been looking all around for a spare for my ride which I upgraded to TT BBK. I know the 17" TT wheels will fit but I have no luck getting my hands on one. I heard LS wheels will clear, can someone chime in what year LS. I see a set but there 16's, will these work? Also, would the ISX50 work??

Not true. I have 18" wheels and couldn't fit them even with 20mm spacers (had over 3" of clearance from rotor to rim). You can look at all the wheel specs you want but it really boils down to the design of the wheel.

You want something that is MEANT to clear bbk.. like the supra TT OEM wheels are made to clear it. Volk and Work make wheels that clear them also but that depends on the disk design.. keep doing research, it took me awhile to get it, and I'm still not 100% sure :P
