caseys Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Hi Peeps, I've got some brake calipers ordered off Nic (Lovely chap ) but am suffering the dilemma of not checking if the wheels will fit over the calipers... I've got a set of Works Equip split-rims and wondering if anyone can identify their model and if they will fit over UK Spec brakes? And yeah they do need a re-furb! Cheers, Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 What size are they, that will help too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caseys Posted June 16, 2006 Author Share Posted June 16, 2006 They're 18x8.5J on the front and I've got 18x9.5J on the rear... Sorry! Brain's a bit squishy this evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I've got some brake calipers ordered off Nic (Lovely chap ) but am suffering the dilemma of not checking if the wheels will fit over the calipers... 2 things I'd suggest Si, either use this cross section of the 4 pot front caliper/hub and measure the clearance you have or find a member close to you with larger brakes fitted and try fitting your wheels on their car. http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/1272/brakeclearancediagram27zp.jpg cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahhh I'm just waiting for them to come back into as the wheel to have... Hopefully that'll happen before the sun extinguishes into a small lump of coal. Nic, I've asked two local members if I can try and fit my wheel on their car, hopefully one will say yes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
