R-90, Team Dynamic and Wilwood question

I'll start off by saying yes, I'm an idiot, so to spare any of you the effort required to affirm this in this thread, I'll just get this out of the way at the start.

I recently put on the 11.75" Wilwood kit, which I love and have no desire to get rid of, over 15x7 Kosei's. No problems there. I assumed that my other tires--S-lites for the winter, R90's for the summer, would clear no problem, as they're two inches bigger in diameter. And then I bumped across a thread that shows the S-lites don't fit.

Does anyone know if R90's will clear 11.75" Wilwoods without a spacer? I have a sneaky suspicion I know the answer...

I'm leaning toward selling the S-lites and R90's--I'm a 15" convert (wish I could have that length in more than just rims, but I digress), and picking up a set of TD's if the 1.2's will fit the Wilwood's without spacers, and slap all-seasons on them for summer/winter.

So the second question is, will TD's 1.2's clear the 11.75 Wilwood kit, and if so, what offset would be best? unfortunately it appears the 1.1's are no longer available, which is a shame because I know they fit with the proper offset.

I have the Wilwood 12.19 kit on my 03s with 17 x 7 R90's with no spacers and no problems!

Thanks! My R90's should clear then--you probably have the same caliper I do.

That makes it less of an emergency. Still going to have to sell the S-lites, and I think I'll put the R90's up once I find an adequate replacement, which I'm still working on...

TD 1.2's fit over the wilwood 11.75's no problem. Run them on both 15" and 17" TDR 1.2's. The 15's are (as i recall) 40et.

You have TD 1.2s 17? You said they don't need spacers. I just installed my Wilwood Brake Kit, my mechanic put a spacers, without spacers, the caliper will hit the wheel itself. I really need help. I hope you can help me. I appreciate it. Thank you.
