Akebono Brake Upgrade Fitment and Clearance

I will be upgrading my base brakes to the Akebono's, but I am worried about fitment/clearance. Anyone know if Akebono's will clear on an Enkei RPF1 18" wheel?

They should. There are plenty of people on this forum that do it. Maybe try searching next time instead of starting a new thread?

You should probably read up in general... The "Will it fit?" thread

The thought did come across my mind on searching because I had a strong assumption that this question has deff been asked before. But thanks for the reply!

Pretty much everything has been asked and answered over the past 12 years. If you can't find the answer here, chances are you'll need to figure it out for yourself.

You'll also want to search by site via google. The search function is terrible as the forum hasn't been updated in 12 years.
