TTMs with C5 brakes?

Anyone tried it? I'm thinking about putting some Anthracite Torq-Thrust Ms (in 17x9 w/+45mm offset) on my 95 Formula, but I want to do the C5 Front Brake conversion in the near future.

Anyone have this combo?

The wheels should fit no problem. I have the Baer GT+ kit which is practically the same (except I have larger rotors) on my 95 bird. I also have stock ws6 17x9 wheels on the vehicle which have a 50mm offset and I have no problems at all. A 17in wheel or larger is required when running the C5 brake kit, so you are good there. Along with that the 45mm offset will give you more than enough clearance between the wheel and caliper.

Just noticed the original post is quite old but I hope my response helped you out greenherb.

well, TT2s do not work with the C5 setup so i would be wary of the TTM working

Well with the wheel size and offset he is quoting there will not be a problem bolting those wheels on the C5 brake kit. Now if his specs are incorrect then that's a different story but if he is correct then he will be good to go, end of story!
