Finally getting sort of maybe nearly close to finishing my Mk1..
before i go any further unless someone has a set of 15x6 comp th's i wont be changing my wheels.

So ladies, other than the 256 astra gte calipers what can i run behind my 14s? Are there any wilwood calipers that will squeeze behind there? As im sure ive read before that they rub. Has anyone had any dealings with compbrake stuff? They look like they could be worth a look.

Rally Design do a 256mm Midilite kit that is supposed to fit behind 14's but I think it would be a tight fit.
Compbrake only do a kit that fits behind a 15" rim.
If space is an issue then Corsa GSi 256x20mm are more compact
This is them on my Spider...
