Default Will Newage Brembo's Fit Behind 17" OZ P1 Alloys?

As title, will they fit without spacers? Quick yes or no is fine, any pics would be mint!

Thanks, Mark

What about OZ Superleggeras?

... apparantly the Superleggeras will fit over Subaru 4 pots, so does this mean they will go over brembos?

If not, can someone point me in the direction of where to get some decent spacers for the superleggeras to make them fit?

Thanks, Mark

Hi
No , none of the standard factory fitted wheels on any of the classics will fit over the Gold STi brembo's without spacers , that includes P1's 17's and 18" wheels , and the RB5 , the Subaru 4 pot calipers is a slimmer design that the brembo's so will have no problems fitting.

When we make our brake kits up , we make our bells much deeper than the Brembo type disc which takes the calipers further into the wheel so the calipers miss the inside of the spokes.

You will need to get hubcentric spacers to do it properly , you can get these from places like Revolution

Cheers Ian

Ian quick question can the brembo caliper be machined to take a larger than standard disc?

Even though the OZ Superleggeras aren't a standard alloy wheel??

... and whats the difference between the likes of a hubcentric spacer and just a universal one?? As the Hubcentric's i've looked at seen to be like 20mm whereas I think i'd only need maybes 6 or 7mm (after speaking to someone on here with the same setup)

Sorry, ignore that last one, i've found a 10mm hubcentric spacer.

So can I have a 10mm spacer on the front and no spacer on the back??

Cheers!

Hmmm. I was thinking about this the other day. So Ian, can you make a disc that would give more clearance on the Gold Brembo's?
