Will the rims fit over the brakes

[Marti]

Im just wondering will r33 gtr rims being 17 inches fit over 360mm rotors ?




Thanks Marti

[Lasoya]

na dont think so man, ive got 340mm rotors and i can only jus fit 17" smallest on me clubby, and u got 360mm

[RICEY]

Will probably fit over the rotors

The calipers are another story though :D

[Shauno]

R33 GTR have 330mm rotors dont they ? So id assume that the R33 GTR rims will fit over the callipers ?

[RICEY]

Depends if the calipers fit the larger rotors without being moved futher out from the hub.

[Marti]

Hmmmm, well correct me if im wrong but 17 inches is around 430mm yes ?, so realistically i have around 70mm to play with and the calipers sit in pretty far, Im only looking for opinions because i do have 18s but i would preffer to leave them at home when i goto the track ha ha

Trail and error ?

355mm rotors and 4 (and 6) pot brembos, is a MINIMUM of 18" rims

[Lonewolf]

yup, need 18's

These piss ant little brakes go close with 34 GTR rims , had 17s clear its just depends on rim design

Tocchi those brembos i got of you were cleared with my 17x8 P1s

[Marti]

Hmmm that brings things into perspective, i do have 18s that clear them with ease but i much rather not use my 18s for track the 17s im thinking about using are r33gtr rims

[Tocchi]

brenden, thats pretty awesome. 17s with the brembos behind them would be... just wow... would only see rim and rotors... no gap!

[DISTRBD]

4pots curve round nicely and there was some good clearance with P1s ..

17" is measure where the bead of the tire sits - u deff do not have 70 mm to play with

id say your dreaming

[Marti]

Thats the kind of thing i needed to know

Hmmmm, well correct me if im wrong but 17 inches is around 430mm yes

this = nup.
as iluv2moan said that is the measured at the bead, the actual barrel diameter is about an inch or so less. then the barrel might be tapered or convexed so it will have a different diameter the whole way along
