Volvo 4 Pots

[Peredur]

Right, having navigated in a Chevette last night that had Volvo 240 4 pots on the front which hauled it to a stop PDQ I'm after some info:

Has anyone on here used volvo 4 pots on a nova?

I assume (rightly or wrongly IDK) that they bolt straight onto the hub - Do they?
What size disc would work with them on a Nova?
Could I jam the whole lot under a 13" rim?

Any advice/answers/guidance appreciated

Thanks

What size rims does a 240 roll on?

[Peredur]

Think they run 15s as standard, they use a 260mm disc though. I know that they fit under 13s as that's what the shuvit was sat on

You've partly answered your own question then lol

[Peredur]

Ok, I'll clear things up a bit lol

I want to know where they sit when bolted straight onto the nova hub, so what size disc they take there and if a 13'll clear them.

Hope that's a bit clearer, I don't want to end up buying calipers and finding out they're no good for me

I doubt they will fit without the associated mods required when fitting other callipers which weren't designed for a Nova.

Remember this being quite popular years ago, only problem is there really heavy.

Ok, Bit more light on it now, how heavy? Same as a 236 vent or 256 vent caliper or much more?
Am I right in thinking they'll bolt straight on?

Thanks
