Holy Crap! How did you achieve that much concave with Big Brake Kit??

Thanks to my man Brandon/GT Theory who went the extra miles to make it happen. He took his time out one night at 2am in the morning installing one of his BBK that he sells which is the WP Pro EX6pot BBK also what I have and bought from him. He did some measurement and sent it over to BC Forged Wheels. We both also did some measurement together over the phone to come up with an offset. He sent all the measurement that he did and I did over to BC Forged and that's how I achieve so much concave with the BBK. Even the front have some serious concave going on. The concave I have in my front now is the same concave i have in the rear of my last set of ADV's. My rear now in person look more extreme concave then deep concave :biggrin:
Its funny because you would think that with stock brakes would get more concave but actually you get more concave with the BBK because stock brakes sit closer to the center of the hub and small 11" rotors makes the center of the wheels sit further out without touching the stock caliper and with the BBK it sits further away from the center of the hub and do to the larger 13" rotors that gives you more room to push the center of the rim in without touching the BBK calipers. So if you guy want some serious concave and you have BBK it can happen. Depending on the wheels company also if they willing to make it happen for you are not. More company won't but BC Forged will! You have a better chance of getting a deep concave with BBK than you do with the stock brakes :wink:

You should do a little research on adv1's... And that guy Jordan and what happened with 360 forged
I like their design also but if their wheel is as light as advan or rays/volks wheels, i would be all over it. The design of the rays and advan wheels just does nothing for me. I try to like it but I just can't. I dont track my car but i want to keep as light as possible.
Something gotta give..... This ain't Buger King, you can't always have it your way. You either get a set of light wheels and not have much of a good looking style wheels or get a badass looking set of wheels like BC Forged and scrafic an extra couple lbs each corner. How often do you track your car? Whats a couple lbs each corner really gonna do to you on the track?
Anyways, good luck finding a set of wheels buddy :smile:
Nope it wasn't me.
It's a Spoon oil cap. Check ebay thats where i got it from and i think i paid $12 bucks for it :biggrin:
Here you go. It's $21 not $12 hehe!

Why don't you just get a set of wheels & keep your stocks
I might be alone on this, but I liked the Adv1's better, these still look sick though.

ADV1's or BC they both look good in their own way. To me Adv1's looks very clean on my car and as for the BC's it looks mean and aggressive :smile:.
Not everyone gonna have the same opinion. I've tried both set and I like the BC's more a lot more :biggrin:

Thanks! That thing beautiful for being so cheap :biggrin:
It's not just a little extra weight. The heavier wheel makes the ride, handling worse, braking worse, steering feel worse. I can overlook almost all of these if I have two sets of shoes except the ride quality. Because on top of the suspension issue, you also have to get even lower profile tires. 35 series tires have so little "give", and bump is absorbed by the wheel, suspension, and eventually, YOU. Add to this that I have 1000/600 pound springs on the car, so the ride is not on the super supple side. I also live in a city with terrible roads. So my biggest worry is that the ride will just become unbearable. So you see, that's my main concern not just a few pounds of weight at the track.
I guess you have a lot to give than just a couple lbs then :frown:. Well good luck with looking for a set of wheels. Worse comes to worse you can always just stay with stock 02+ wheels. They actually look really nice on your NSX anyways :smile:
