Ksprort/d2 356mm under 17's?

Does anyone know of any 17inch wheels that fit over the d2 or ksport 356mm discs?
ive just seen a post on a Nissan forum saying that they are using ultralight battle 17's with the above brake kit??

anyone actually done on here?

we have a customer's car running one of our custom 356mm Alcon 6pot brake kit under 17" wheels.............

the new car he's building we have a bespoke 378mm version under his 18's ;)

very few wheels have the ability to cater to this

Spill the beans...? :D

Thanks for the reply, sounds good, so will the Alcon kit fit under any 17in wheel? What wheels is your customer using ?

The ap 356 kit barley clear the bbs 18 inch wheels

I keep finding post on other forums of people running a 17inch wheel over the ksport 356 brake. Are they all mad or is there some truth in this?

Ive got a nice 330mm 6 pot kit for sale.in the section

The issue you have isnt the discs which are 14inches, but the caliper which may impeed the wheel.
My Peugeot comes with 380mm Alcon 4 pots and those wont fit under 18 inch wheels, they barely clear the 19's it comes with (the wheels are also ET23 v ET28 and a half inch wider than the standard alloys). You will be better going 18 inch wheels and then go with the 356mm kit.

I'm currently getting the bits together to modify my v5 type r for fast road use and will be using 17inch wheels so I can have more tire and a better ride than my other classic with the 18's. I was all set to get the smaller brake kit to fit the 17s but then seeing those post I'm just trying to find out for myself as I'd rather have the bigger brake kit so if in the future I decide to put 18s on it I'll have the bigger brakes to match. I know it looks like I'm asking dumb question but I'll be p1st off if I found out it could be done and I didn't do it 👍🏻

they will never fit with std factory 17" wheels and as above you may struggle with certain factory style 18" wheels

for extreme race use, etc. then we tend to use the likes of Team Dynamics competition wheels which have possibly the largest inner rim brake clearance available??
