Big brake wheel clearance.

Hoping Someone can help me get some definitive answers on what brake kit clears rota rxr?

Current set up is hilux s12-8 4 pot on unvented 10.7 inch discs at fronts and 200sx rear with 195 40 17 on polished lipped rota RB.

They came with the car when I got it from the states but not a fan. Ads having a lot of body repair work so thought best to do this as well.

Would like to upgrade the front to a large vented disc kit, maybe wilwood but want to make sure I can fit them with a new wheel choice and which wilwood kit or would something else be a better easier option?

Looking at Rota RXR as they seem the best watanabe style for the money but can't find 16x8 so looks like 15x8 0et is the only option. Maybe I could put 9's on the rear but what offset for that and more importantly what brake kit will fit with 15x8 0et at the front?

Trying to keep it looking fairly stock just a bit lowered and of course there's the rb25det hence the reason for the upgrade.

Any advice or help would be really appreciated. I don't want to order stuff only to find out it fowls and can't be done.

If I'm lucky it might be back on the road before summers gone or have we just had it!

Don't forget the brakes I had made up for the front from BG developments (who do AP's custom brakes in Coventry).

Although Im not sure they would fit under 16's, I think they were 330mm front 2 piece discs (and were for a 5 lug hub from a 280zx).
