If you were in sydney we could test fit the wheel on my car with brembo calipers to check the clearance
If I was down that way I would definitely take you up on that offer mate!! Appreciate the offer mate!!!
You gave me an idea though..
Maybe a wrecker selling those brembos might let me put my wheel on one with brembos to check the clearance..

This is forged HF20 wheel that is on my car now and clears Brembos front and rear. 48 offset by the looks of it. JHP might have this one wrong ?
Thanks mate!! That’s great to know..
Maybe JHP have put up the wrong info on their website..
hard to see in your photo but does it say 20x8.5jxis48 aswell???

I cant see it clearly either ;) I definitely see 48 at the end.

Almost certain it says JXIS48. Only 'x' is a bit hard to see

@Shaun_26 originally did ask about 6 pot Brembo's, I guess the width is the same as the 4 pot Brembo's that everyone is referencing ?

The casting marks on the HF-20's that came fitted to my Redline Ute.
I would've sacked the bloke responsible for those wheel specs, a complete idiot!

Should've been 20x8.5 +38 and 20x10 +50. Then they could've run 245/35 and 285/30 with the same diameter tyres front and rear on the ideal width rims. Why bulge a 275/30 on a 9" wheel so the rear tyre diameter is smaller than the front, unbelievable!
