You could also try dropping Pete Croney a line, he has a Brembo
calliper AP disc solution that should also fit under 16's - and no one can doubt it's effectiveness after watching Pete lapping a circuit.
Have a look at JohnS thread about the Tarox BTW for even more choices...

Ok, as you all know by now I'm after a nice set of AP Racing 4-pots for the blackbeast. as you also know I'm worried about them not fitting under my non subaru 16 inch wheels. The ever sensible Chuckster has suggested that I might want to put a shout out to see if there is anyone in my local vicinity (kent, if you want a more specific area then email me) who has the AP Racing 4-pots and would be willing to meet up with me and get dirty (oo-er ) and remove wheels and see if the AP's would fit under my wheels.

The kit I'm talking about is the AP Racing 4-pot (CP5200-1035-G8 (304mmx28mm discs 48 vane 8 grooved)) and not the 330 (is this not the 6 pot kit anyway?)

so, anyone want to help me out here? if so then email me for exact location.

Markus, APR supply a free brake profile measure for exactly this purpose. It's simply a sheet of A4 paper with the outline of the caliper marked on it. Cut it out and hold it against the wheel hub and there's your answer. I used it and it was accurate to within 1mm. e-mail sales@apracing.co.uk

Hoppy,
spooky you should mention this, Mike T @ Scoobymania emailed me one on friday (thanks mike). I have just this second come inside from taking wheel off and using the profile thing, hmm, looks close, very close, now my cutting skills are not that good (being a lefty n all ) so I *might* get away with it, dunno? guess I could always get the AP kit and then if it does not fit properly save some pennies and get 17 inchers then put the AP on, safe in the knowledge that it'll fit. hmmmm.

so, no-one out there with AP 4's wanting to help me out then?
