Fitted a set of 355 disc,s and ap 6 pots to my mates 4x4 saff,bolted on his brand new 18" mo,s and guess what,the caliper fouls the spokes on the mo,s.has any body had this problem,brake kit came off an ecos which had 18" rondells

i was told there was a prob with the new mo s they would not fit the big brakes could be wrong though ask mr hadland he would no might be off set

 

dan wheels are old 6 spoke design,and they came from martoooooon so should be ok,think a 4 mm spacer will be the answer

 

ah sorry m8 thought it was the new ones i dont no then hehe spacers should sort it

 

A mate had a similar problem on his road car scooby. He didn't want to run spacers so his only other option was new wheels.

His wife wasn't best pleased to say the least

 

abviously not a gd kit

 

Hi mate

Did you send the wheel of aswell when you was getting your brackets and bells made ???

if you do use a spacer make sure you use longer studs

hope this helps

no marco,wheels where bought new before the brakes,as said they cam from martoooon and correct et for saff,brakes where sh from cam off of here,surrised they cleared rondell,s and not mo,s

mmm
I had to fit 5 mm spacers for my 4 pots
and that was with the Avez As`
i bought a proper kit with longer studs etc

 

rondells on cams car was a et20 with a 3mm spacer on also mine had NO spacers on and was 362x32mm not the 28mm ones u have my wheels was et 35

 

see this piccy had no spacers on

 

and there is your answer...

 

whats the big deal about people not wanting to run spacers ??

 

The Escort runs totally different offsets to the Sapph so this is your problem...

My Dad has an AP 6 pot set up using 356 x 32mm Discs sat here and they fit just with ET37 wheels.
