Wheels That Fit Brembo Brakes

[FLOORED]

Medium 6 Piston caliper mounted to 322mm Ford rotors all made now for testing and to see how many 17" and up factroy wheels we can clear. The calipers used are a new caliper on top of the others that we are looking at suppling now. Will have photos and more info as we progress.
What various size wheels do the honeycombe come in?

I can confirm that the 19" rims fitted to the FPV GS clear the 6 pot brembo's.

They would, way back when they were the BF Mk1 GT-P rims (6-pot standard)

Hopefully fitting this kit up in a week and also our Brembo 6 piston 355mm kit that has moved the caliper inwards to clear most rims.

Does anyone know if Vertini Drifts fit over Brembos?

Yes they do

Thanks

Can someone clarify if the genuine ford BA FPV GT wheels 18" x 8, which is the 7 spoke wheels (offset 28.5) clears the rear 4 piston brembo brakes?

Thanks.

That sounds like the original GTP wheel not GT mate. They had 5 twin spokes. GTP had 4 pot front/rear standard in the first series

Does the kit that moves the disc & caliper in fit the 19" Xr option wheels?

We haven't tested every wheel as yet with the Brembo kit and that kit should be trielled very very soon. We also have a medium 6 piston caliper that fits the std BF FG XR6T XR8 322mm front disc and this seems to fit most wheels and even a 17" so far.

If you have the 298mm or 322mm set up on the car now you can measure the distance from the outside face of the disc to the inside face of the spoke and if you get 90mm or more then they should fit. If it is just under that you would need to dummy fit the brakes behind the rim.

Finally have our Brembo 6 piston deep dish brake kit ready for testing to suit AU11 to BF and we have this bolted up clearing a 2 piece 18" simmons wheel.
The caliper sits inwards by atleast 30mm over the factory kit but we will confirm this and so far the only mod to the car is to turn a bolt around on the suspension so the caliper doesn't foul.
Hopefull this will fix most problems when trying to use factory wheels and we still use a 355mm disc rotor with a custom alloy hat. The kit will be fitted soon to a AU11 ute and be tested on the track.
FG Kits will be next.

Thought i'd just put these up here. Yup, Simmons rip off, but I personally think that Simmons are overpriced. Ive never had a set and im sure that theyre top quality, but for those who want the look but not the price these might be a nice alternative, especially considering the offsets, colours and the fact they cover them big brakes

They're nice wheels. The last pic they've used is maurie's ts50. Looks smick

Any news on the Fg kit?

The medium 6 piston calipe on the factory 322mm rotor is done but the Brembo kit may be longer to do as we have found a big difference in the offset of the spokes in the FG wheels and also the kit we first looked at needed the bracket trimmed and the bottom bolt on the suspension turned arounded so the caliper didin't foul so we have to look further into it.
We also have new aftermarket caliper which is better and bigger than the one used on the 322mm rotor that fitst hefactory 355mm rotor and has 5-10 mmm more clearance than the Brembo caliper so we may use this one for our kits if it works out ok on this FG project.

The wheel deal has a wizard which inclides refining your search for wheels by clearing brembos

[esppwr]

Thanks for the update, hope the kit clears the 19" Xr option wheel

Great thread this one and choc full of useful info, thanks must be said to all that have contributed.
I've just read thru it all and have drawn the following conclusion on brembo set ups.
If the front wheel clears 6p fronts it should clear 4p rears...
And by clearing having 3mm should keep you out of harms way.

I'm looking to fit a set of 20s in an 8.5 to my BFII. Looking into a bunch of different rims (a few I've now obtained info on from this thread) including the Simmons fr20-1s but I don't think there is any feedback on these as yet?

[99AUXR]

XXR521 18x8.5 +25
XXR521 18x10 +25

I also know that the 20" versions clear.

[raised by monkeys]

looking at some concave concept co22 after seeing them on a forum members FG F6.
I want them to suit a BF TORNADO.

can someone tell me the limit pushing offset without rolling guards?

D1r lensos over the 4 pots on my f6.

Are these 18s or 20s
wandering if d1r 18s will fit over 4 pots

this gave me a headache trying to find this out. I don't think they do though, but factors which may depend on this include offset and wheel width. If Lenso made a 19" it would relieve so many tension headaches.

I saw the fg down lower who has them but lenso told me they wouldnt and i want them but i dont want 20s. As you say 19s would be cool.
18x9 +25
18x10+22

can anyone tell me what these wheels are? Are they Koya drift tek's?
Onyone know if koya 18" with a +25 will get over 4piston brembos on a BF ute?

Koya make custom offsets don't they?

Looks like a lot of dish to Clear Brembos on a Falcon though.

[PHANTMXR6]

King Wheels Matrix. 19x8 35+ offset. Does clear 6 piston Brembo front and 4 piston rear. Front 355mm, rear 330mm.
Looks surprisingly better than I expected.

[raised by monkeys]

^ its ok I found them. Well outside my price range anyways ha http://www.ssr-wheels.com/gallery/category/SP1.aspx

[shaine71]

Will brembo 4 pots (rears)fit over VERTINI DRIFTS 20x10 +35 offsets
