Don't need to post pictures as Gary has the same set up as me.

Si, Prodrive do a new wheel that looks very much like the WRCP-1 wheel that looks very nice and will go over large brembo, so should go over Ap 6 pots.

Have a look here:18" Gold OZ 10 Spoke Alloy Wheel (shown with tyre)

I wanted to keep my wheels, so used some spacers to clear the brembos

What brakes are you going to fit?
This is my V6 TypeR with 17" Speedline Turini's, and the Godspeed 335mm kit:



Turini's haven't got great clearence for brakes (ie will not take Brambos without spacers) but they fit over these...

Simon, do you really need them? You don't drive the old girl that hard do you? Might be a waste of £1500

Gary, it might be because the other Simon (SSS) is doing a brembo conversion and Si is feeling left out. I would to I think, well I am with my Sport

My AP 330mm kit, on the standard 17" RB5 Speedline..

Think they should also fit the Speedline ST2's as well as it looks like the same wheel without the split in the spokes



Plenty of space for the rear kit too
