    I run Kosei TS on mine. 15x7. The clearance is minimal. I put two wheels in a dirt once and caught a rock between the caliper and the wheel. Almost lost the wheel on that one and had to replace the hub. But that was a bit of a freak accident. To see what will fit you can go to Tire Rack and select winter wheel packages, select JCW option and 15 inch wheels and that will show you what they have available.

    Well that definitely helps some, thanks. Too bad Discount Tires does not have a similar wheel selector capability.

    Is there any other 15s that fit R53 JCWs brakes?
    I am interested in sizes 15x7, 15x7.5 or 15x8 several wheels specifically:

    1. Motegi TrakLite 2.0- These do fit over JCW calipers!!
    2. SSR Type-C
    3. Enkei RP-F1
    4. Volk CE28N
    5. BBS RG-F
    6. Volk TE37

    Anybody try these over R53 JCW brakes?
