Just got a set of 4 pot calipers for my classic to replace 2 pots. I did a trial fit as I have 16" wheels, the wheels fit over the calipers but how much clearance should the caliper have to the spokes on the wheels. When I checked mine the clearance was 0.7mm between them at the smallest point. Is this ok or should the distance be larger, and if so how much clearance should there be. Thanks any help is appreciated.

 

Which 16 inch wheels do you have?

 

Hi, I have got a set of Sparco wheels which came with the car when it was imported. Not too sure of the name of them. I can try and post a pic Iam new at this.

 

hopefully this works

 

There you go



Personally I wouldn't run that close a clearance, standard 16"wheels used to offer a couple of mm from memory but 0.7mm, thats a spark plug gap

 

Thanks for help I think I will go for some different wheels
