Dnk Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Depends on the back of the spoke design, you can see on mine how close the caliper is to the back of the spokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impossible to say just from the sizes and offsets, it depends on the wheel design. What are they. Any pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc_p Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Ultralite's don't clear UK spec brakes as far as I'm aware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 (edited) I think you'll find they do but before you buy any check out a recent thread showing them with the laquer falling off after only 500 miles of dry use. pjavon's thread Also check on their website for the terms and conditions !

Dnk Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Theres a set of very nice TRD five spoke splitrims in the forsale section. They look very much like my Work Equips but with polished lip and siver/grey centers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodilx6 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 You need to find out the Forward Protrusion of the wheels. That is the distance from the hub contact point to the inside of the spokes. It should be greater than 39.1 mm (at the smallest point) to clear the brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
