Wheels for 4-pot Alu Caliper?
Posted: Sat Nov 10, 2012 6:27 am
Hi Brian,
I have a keen interest in upgrading my front brakes. I am already a RB customer (Open slot 2 pieces rotor, race pads and brake lines) and I'd like now to upgrade to the 4-pot Aluminium calipers kit (ref 61-0620) for my RX8.
In 2010, I bought from you four Enkei RPF1 17"x9 wheels. On RB website it is clearly stated that they are not compatible (clearance issue I suppose), but they also say that their calipers will fit most 17" wheels.
I am considering the idea to buy new wheels (such as the Enkei 17x9 PF01 ET48mm or the 6ULR Charcoal 17x9), but I need to be sure that those wheels will be compatible with the calipers. Do you know if they are OK?
My RX8 is a dedicated track car and I want to stay with 17" wheels...
Thank you!!
Yari
