If you found a set of the 16" limited edition "Monte" wheels, then you probably could, but not the standard ones.

No room behind them - look at the clearance for the standard sliding calipers - a nat's cock, so no chance of AP 4-pots let alone 6-pots.

Hi-spec do a special slimline 4-pot caliper and 310mm disc that will fit behind the standard wheels though...

Smit,
Apart from packing two sets of the same spacers, Grant's only problem is that he can't get in touch with them because they are all at the Autosport Show .

No m8 sorry there on the car but i can confirm they are very very
good. I had ap 4 pots on my last car, and these are every bit as good if not
better imo , the calipers are very large compared to the cozy ones, and the
piston / pad size is nearly twice that of the cozy ones, basicly i wanted the
best brakes i could fit under 16 inch rim, and im well pleased with the end
result.
