Another question about Tonys brakes...

Post by Janspeedcapri »

Hi mate, I'm getting the same setup and although its a bit last minute, I wondered if the track is altered at all? by this I mean does the bolting face move inward or outward at all, front or rear?

Reason I ask is I'm having 15" splitrims made for this car and whilst I had decided on offsets for a standard 2.8, I just about have time to change them if I need to. thanks

the track front and rear is wider by the width of the disc,
around 8mm each side.

Right. I was going for 7.5J ET5 Front and 8.5J ET10 rear, but an extra 8mm will make them rub. What is the machining of the hubs for then, and don't you remove the existing rear drums? Is there no way round it? ...again, its going to eat into my dish :cry:
