Default rear clearance for TT calipers

we've heard so much talk about people asking the clearance for the front calipers (2.5 inch - 3), but what about the back? how much clearance is needed? i have a 18x10 +38 with about 2.75 inch lip will this clear at all?

thx alot

TurboTeg ran Work's "Super Low" disc fitment and still cleared the stock TT rear calipers on his SC.

The Rear calipers do not protrude beyond the hub like the front calipers. Wheel disc fitment is not an issue on the rear TT calipers.

im not positive, but i think it will be close with that size of a lip/offset. the TT rear calipers dont necessarily need as much space as the fronts, but are definitely bigger than the stockies. But with that offset you can definitely run a spacer (if you're comfortable running one) and possibly do a slight roll the rear fenders (if you havent already).

-For me i had a 39 offset and ran a 10mm spacer with a slight roll in the rear. i'm not sure if it will fit the stock fenders as mine were already rolled.
