Default Re: Wheels That Fit Brembo Brakes

Is it safe to assume that wheels that clear 4 piston brembos will clear 6 piston also?

I won't say 100% yes but so far we have found it to be correct

On the fg i have about 65mm clearance from the stock caliper to the back of my wheel spoke. Is that enough to clear Brembos?

From memory you need about 90mm from the outside face of the rotor to the inside face of the spoke. The brembo rotor was brought about 18mm or so closer to the rim before you even fit the caliperss.
