can't see them fitting myself, would be best off speaking to the likes of reyland or rainbird etc as you will have to explain which calipers you are using, what offset the wheels have got etc, but i think they will be too small

also there are a few different sized "360" kits, some are 355 some are 358 some are 360 and some are 362 in size

i think the biggest u will get under 17s is 6 pot 330s and a 4x4 set up is fine for the rears in fact alot of people say 6 pots are over kill for the road ive never had probs with my ap 4 pots on the road
