2ltr brakes

[125scouse]

what size wheels do i need 2 get get 2ltr brakes behind, av got 14inch tsw's r these big enough or do i need 15's?

[Mike]

15's minimum. 16's would be better so the calipers dont touch the tyre valves. (well, theyll only touch if the valves r the 'L' shaped ones like on artic trucks!)

brilliant that, thanks m8y :D

[Mike]

no probs 8)

You can definately fit them under 15's and I thought you can fit them under 14's so long as they aren't the GSi/GTE ronal rims?

[Philsutton]

the astra GTE came with 14s on. they fit under most 14s but you might need to use spacers on the nova 3 spokes

They do fit under 14s - only V6 brakes need a 15inch minimum :roll:

[Snowface]

they fit under 14" if they are 5.5J or more, like mine.

i thought that, but when you say 15 min, its a very tight fit for the V6 ones :D

[nova_rally]

Thats why I dont have V6 ones! :lol: Only just squeezed 2.0 8v brakes under my 14inch 3-spokes. you can actually get 13" motorosport RFX wheels (as used on the works rally cars) that clear 2.0 brakes.
