6 pot tarox setup
Hi buying a tarox 6 pot setup for my classic I have 17s on it just now and I was wondering if 18s would go over them OK ?

I had a set of Tarox 6 pots with 300mm discs on them. fitted underneath 17s no problem. Sold the car for breaking so cant tell you the offset though.

The brembo's are wider, your mate could of had the wrong offset wheels in 17" to cover them. All depends on the offset and design of the wheels.

brembo's are quite a wide caliper. What il do is try and find the offset of the wheels i had on, and let you know. The offset should be stamped on the inside "hub" mating surface of your wheel's.
