Greetings from Italy :)

I just got a set of Spoon twinblock calipers, and as I don't like spacers, I would to buy a new set of wheels. Here in Italy tuning is not legal so I have to buy 15" wheels with OEM tyres size and I like 2 models I think should clear calipers:

1) Rota slipstream 7X15" ET+40
2) Buddy club P1 racing SF 7X15" ET+35

I would to know if someone have any feedback or could recommend me any wheels with this feature.
 
The rota slips definitely fit. Not 100% sure about the Buddy clubs... But i am pretty sure they are fine too
 
I fitted my spoons under OEM wheels with no spacers. I now run Rays te37s with them
 
OEM wheels do fit over spoon calipers. OEM EK9 wheels that is.
 
I forgot to say I have a DC2 :D

Are EK9 wheels bigger than DC2 ones? I have just tried to put the wheels over the calipers and they rub on the spokes.
 
The Ek9 wheels are only 15" but the spokes curve out so give more room for the calipers
 
If they actually rub on the spokes themselves couldn't you use some spacers and then some longer wheel nuts? Or do they hit the edge of the wheel?
 
oem ek9 Wheels fit

rims ive tried so far size 15

volk te37 15x6.5 +35offset
volk te37 15x7 +35 offset
real racing r2 15x7 + 40
 
Rota make slipstreams in Champ white just to fit over Spoon brakes
