no chance

i believe damo v has 310mm with AP 4 pots on his monte

calipers fit fine, just the disc size as its only a 16" rim

no point worrying about disc size on a monte anyway as you cant see shit from the spokes

You will JUST get a 330 conversion (maybe not all manufacturers though ) under Monte rims, though you wont be able to balance the wheels, you could fit spacers

I have CP5200 calipers (AP) and AP 315mm discs.
