20" Coys with 14" Wilwood front brakes
I'm not sure this is the right forum section but here we go....
I'm planning on running 20x8.5 Coy C5s on the front of my truck and I'm worried the calipers won't clear. My truck is a 66 C10 with a C4 vette style PB dropmember and coilovers. The brakes are 14", 6 piston Narrow Superlite Radial Mount Wilwoods for a C6 with KORE3 adapters. I reached out to Coy but haven't heard back yet. I've read that people use a spacer to push the spoke away but then I'd have to run a different offset that might not give me the look I'm after. Anyone with 20" Coys and big brakes?? Thank you!!

Re: 20" Coys with 14" Wilwood front brakes
I had a set of 20 x 8.5" Coy's wheels over a set of Kore3's 14" Hybrid brakes (2 piston floating C6 caliper with 14" Z06 rotors) behind it and had to put a 1/4" spacer to clear the 2 piston floating caliper. I would imagine that having a 6 piston fixed caliper would be worse. The problem was where the spokes rolled back to make the lip of the rim deeper, it was touching the outer "corner" of the calipers. There was plenty of clearance between the machined outer face of the caliper and the spokes. I also had to use a flush mount valve stem because the valve stem cap would hit the calipers.
For what it is worth, my rear 22" Coy's cleared everything on the front brakes... Here is a link to the wheel fitment template for the brakes I had. Maybe comparing the numbers will give you a more definite answer. http://www.kore3.com/downloads/fitme...es/DOC0017.pdf
