This was my motivation in leading the +35 15x8'' TE-37 group buy.

Not the same size but mugen may be doing another run of the mf10.

The japanese companies really like the 16in wheel size for some odd reason...

15” wheels don’t clear the Mugen (s2k calipers) brake kit for the ITR.

Any update on your findings? I would gladly sell my current set up for the new mugen wheels, if true....

That is a broad statement. I would reference this thread as an example to which wheels clear other bigger brakes:

Very true my statement above is bounded by my own limited experience that the s2k caliper hits the barrel of the 15" wheels I've tried.
