Default Alloys to fit over my Compbrake 4 Pots - Classic

Anyone got the Compbrake 4 pots on their classic.

I have just fitted some Compbrake 4 pots with 330mm disks
http://www.compbrake.co.uk/BRAKEKITS...REZA_4POT.html
but I have had to put 10mm spacers on for them to fit

I have currently got some Inovit 18" (215 35 r18) something like these in Gold on
http://www.topgear.co.uk/acatalog/4x...with_tyres.php

Any ideas what offset or wheels will fit?

I might aswell get new alloys anyway as I need hubcentric spacers, 4 new tyres & wanted to refurb my Inovits black.

Preferrably in Black(Dark) and Wheel & Tyre Package about the Inovit price range £700 max[Don't tell the wife] (No compomotives or Rotas for me ) I don't mind going down to 17" or stretching tyres.



I have the standard wrx suspension on at moment

I've got Compbrake 4 pots + 356mm discs on my classic. They went on with no spacers though. I've got 18" Rota GRAs over them and they have loads of clearance.

I really like the Rota range of alloys - I may have to push the boat out money wise and go for some.

Any idea what offset - I've had a look at the Rota website and it looks like the GRA model has a few sizes

Can't remember offhand, but I'll check the receipt and let you know. I think the GRAs are really pretty wheels on a classic and they're reasonably light too.

Brilliant thanks - have you any pics?

I've got a white classic so I'm going to go for a contrasting dark alloy.

Yes mate. Here you go:









As you can see, I have the "Cadnium pearl". I like the colour as it's an unusually pale gold. Also noticed that I have the 330mm discs, thought they were 356mm.

I'm actually moving on from the Compbrake kit now, but they have been good stoppers on the whole and a million miles from the original two-pots!

Like them - nice gold colour, goes well with the black. What brakes are u going for next. I've not really tested mine yet until I get rid of the spacers
