Brake Clearance help

[andrew1988]

Im thinking about putting 15" vauxhall steelies on my track car for cost puposes and wondered if they would fit over 288mm Vectra V6 discs and calipers?

Also, are there even vaux steelies available that would take 195/50/15 tyre?



Cheers

IIRC Baxter has some steels on his loon, think there V6 brakes but i might be wrong.

Check his WIP

I really doubt steelies will clear tbh!!!

Its the spokes of alloys that gives them the extra clearence.


Any 6j 15" wheel will take a 195 tyre

with the right width im pretty sure steelies should go. most vectras come with 288's (all 5stud except 2.5gsi which has 308's) and im pretty sure most of them come with 15" steelies as spares..

worst case u will need to run a small spacer..

should be fine mate ck is right v6 vectras have a 15in steelie as a spare my gsi veccy have a 15in steelie as a spare and that goes on the front no probs, plus seem fo remember dougie from tv running 15in astra sport steelies on his belmont and that has v6 brakes
