Do 16" comp take 330m discs?

If so does anyone have the internal measurement of the wheel for comparison against my 16" wheel.

Cheers

Ryan

Don't think they do ryan, thought you could bearly get 330's behind 17's

Maybe more space cos they are comps but i'm not 100%

I have 300's behind my 16's and they are a squeeze

Plus if the wheels was 16" that would be 400mm so thats 70mm for rim and caliper space, it's fucking close whatever!!

Im going for 304 hopefully under 15s...

Your car is light your not going to neeed huge brakes !

Ryan

yeah think it may be overkil, but unsure if these calipers will go down to 305mm, as they were designed for 330'. but maybe just a pad change will sort it, if not i might have to sell them on.

Luca

LOL bet you wish YOU had these wheels

jesus, how much is that lot worth?

Luca

All depends which Comp wheel your fitting Ryan

Ryan

im not fitting a comp wheel, im want an internal measurment from a 16" compomotive wheel for comparison to my wheels

Ryan

why do i want that?

does that tell me an internal mesurement of a comp 16"

Matt Evans

I ran 16"s on my last track S2, both compomotive TH2 and Superleggera. The 315mm AP 4 pot kit was close against the OZ's but there was a good 10mm clearance on the Comps.

Luca

iTrader: (2)

All im saying is each compomotive wheel wheteher 14-15-16-17 is different between the dismensions.

My cxs wheels in 15" offer more clearence than a 15" MO

Best way will be to fit your wheel on a car with the size brakes you want.


Anyway why you want 16's ,15s is the way forward!!!

Ryan,
I have no idea what inside dimensions the 16 Comp Mo wheel is, but I can assure you, you can fit 330s and AP 4-pots (calliper dependent), as I know of several who have done it.

Ryan

cheers mike, thats what i wanted to know, im pretty sure i will be able to squeeze 330's under there, as they run 305mm as standard under them.

luke, 15's will be an option if i decide to run smaller brakes, but there arent that many wheels i like in 15's that suit my car.

16x8's go on nicely though with some KW V3's

Have you posted what car youve got yet ryan?? Mk1 Golf??

Ryan

yes mk1 golf max, and no i havent really.

GTI non sunroof.

will be running seat sport engine and 6 speed box with peloguin diff. (about 280hp in current guise) cant be arsed with more than that, as thats a standard drop in package, that works and works well, could obviously go well over 300, but that in a 850kg will be just silly.

Luca

iTrader: (2)

What colour and model have you got

Dan

AP 330's under his 16's...

Ryan - did you know you can turbo a standard VR6 engine, run a decomp plate, whack a GT3076 turbo on it (at the very least), get a piggy back chip on STANDARD management & different injectors and easily run a reliable 400/400!!!

Ryan

yes lee i did mate, seen quite a few done on the forums and was very suprised.

also whats more suprising is the vr6 engine goes for like £300 second hand.

400/400 engine for about 1.5k

think it would make the mk1 very front end heavy though.

Mad init - I saw one at the rolling road day I went to on Saturday - made 430bhp/440ftlb lol - surprised wasnt the word - all home built - very very impressive!!

Ryan

i know of a twin engined twin turbo'd mk2, running 2 of those engine.

supposedly between 800-900hp

cant imagine the speed of that thing

BriB

I have 328mm dia disc's with AP 5820 6 pots under 16" image wheels.

No pics as I am a work.

Sorry to drag an old topic back up, does anyone know if 325 mils will fit behind escort cossie wheels?

Has anyone done this?

Namely these bad boys

Yes and no they won't.

Even 304mm with big callipers won't fit.

310mm discs and standard callipers is the limit of the standard wheels (on a 4x4 car, you may get bigger on a 2wd).

alan12112

Fuck!

Looks like I need to sell the cossies then!!

Fast Guy

Here's 330s under a 16" MO on a Sunny Gtir. I think he had to use a 3mm spacer.

Micky The Finn

not a definative answer there because of the calipers your using,ie not motorsport ones,with the correct caliper a 330mm ap set up will fit under 16's,355's will fit under 17".

i had 309mm tarox kit with 6pots, which were designed to fit on escos, under std wheels

Micky The Finn

now that is because its using a proper caliper.
