Will FR500 Rims Clear Brembo or Wilwood big brakes?

Anyone with FRPP FR500 rims with either Wilwood or Brembo brakes in front (13"+ rotors)? Also, are the spacing specs the same on Wheel Replicas' version of the FR500?

I can't get the proper profile measurements of the FR500 rims if my life counted on it! Please advise!!!

Thanks in advance,

Norm

Try and look at the specs from the FR500 and see what type of brakes it had on it. There is a write up on here i think and i think on mustang world too. I would assume that they do clear.

Already thought of that. The original looks to have Brembo up front. However, the rims were a custom 3-piece setup. I doubt if the production FR500 cast rims have the same offset and clearance. I need to confirm before I buy the brakes since I'd hate to have a fit issues once the parts start to arrive.

Thanks for your input though.
