Will Big Brake Kit clear on Rovos Durban Wheels?

Jman2025 · Jul 20, 2023

Like the title says, I'm planning to get a staggered set of Rovos Durban Wheels but I wasn't sure if the SVE Cobra Style Brake Kit (front and back set) were going to clear. Ive been having a hard time finding information that will help me with this.

If it helps, the wheels are gonna be 18x9 w/ 265/35r18 (F) and 18x10.5 w/ 285/35r18 (R)

i wouldnt consider that a big brake kit, but general rule of thumb, 13s fit in 17 inch wheels and up/14s fit is 18 inch wheels and up so long as there is sufficient barrel clearance in the wheel
