Do MB Weapons clear with no spacers? 17x8 +28

My buddy is going to pickup an extra set of MB weapons for the winter.

Anyone running 17x8 +28 MB weapons?

Do they clear the brembo's with no spacers?

Doing a search I get conflicting answers.

This guys says they don't fit and need spacers > https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...7&postcount=30

This guy say NO spacers needed > https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ghlight=weapon

and this guy says it fit's with NO spacers needed > https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...2&postcount=42 and https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ghlight=weapon

Plus this guy has 18x8 +30 (which would bring the wheel closer to the caliper) says they fit with NO spacers. They are 18's so the spoke design might be a tad different than the 17's though. > https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ghlight=weapon

Thanks

My friend had them on his car. They needed 5mm spaces up front to clear the brakes.

Wow this is actually blowing my mind. Half the people who have these say they fit with no spacers and the other half say they need a 5mm spacer.

You positive it was the 17x8 +28 and not the 17x8 +42.

Thanks for the info. Anyone else with these?
