Hi,

Has anyone managed to find a light/good option for front brakes under 13 inch wheels?

All the wilwood kits seem to cater for 256mm kits and minimum 14 inch wheels which is of no interest to me.

Any ideas anyone?

Regards
Phil

236mm vented discs with ate calipers, Corsa spec...........

It is what I run on my Nova Sport/SR

I'm putting Wilwood Dynalites on a corsa 240x20mm disc under 13's, but I'm getting an engineer to make up some brackets for them and they'll only go under Revolution RFXs.

Otherwise it looks like 236 vents are the only other option

This, it add in some lairy pads such a short minted 1155, carbone lorraine cl5+ etc

No need to vented discs as it is a hillclimb car, and wanted to try and find a lighter caliper option really as the standard items weigh a ton.

Sounds like buying a universal wilwood and making a bracket to mount it is the best bet.
