I've got 4 pots under my RST with super leggeras without the use of spacers.
Just the 4 mm shimming of either the brakes or hubs or some of both.

its the depth of them though not the diameter, my cossie wheels just about go over my cossie 4 pots, but series 1 wheels and series 2 wheels wouldnt fit over, not because of the diameter but how much the caliper sticks out, they were rubbing on the back of the spokes, it depends what offset wheels you use too. i'v got tsw hockenheim's on now and they just about clear them.

Mark, seems you should use 4wd calipers if you want to use standard wheels. I have 2wd calipers fitted which are fine with 17inch Mo's but I want to run 15's for the strip and with the 15's I have acquired from a R reg escort finesse they catch the caliper. At the moment I'm thinking spacers and possibly the grinder. But just wondering if anyone knew if another type of wheel fits. I'd use steels if they fit!

Collecting bits still lol. Decided I want to run it with out a body kit. Ordered new silks and inner rear arches. Smothed the boot and welded new lower rear quarters in.
Going to run a 6speed box now, just need to decide on what lump.
Got boxxers old frst to play with now aswell.
Making alot of cnc bits for it to. Want pillowball top mounts ect.
I got them arp main bolts that are no good to me now as it won't b cvh

you can just make them out poking out in the holes of the wheels
