Hi steve

 

Just checking but I assume these won't fit under a 13inch rim

 

Cheers

Hi Phil, can’t see why not I was planning on putting them on mine with 13”I currently have the hispec big brake kit 285mm disks and my 13”s fit fine. You just have to make sure the wheel weights are in the inside of the wheel

[fildyke]

Ok thanks Steve

 

I currently have the Westfield hispec ultralites fitted. Do you know if these would be a direct replacement or would they need an adapter.

i have these brakes on my car and 13" wheels (minispeed minilite) don't fit. Maybe it depends on wich type of 13" you're trying to fit.

These look now like Wilwood Powerlite calipers to me. If they are, they fit under 13” Team Dynamics 1.2 and Compomotive CXR wheels. I believe Minilites have thicker rims…..

The calipers look to be Midilites, which are what RallyDesign is offering with the 285mm disc. They market that as 15" only, but I agree with @mTT97 as clearance hugely depends on the wheels used. Split rims usually have much more space than one piece wheels.

Yep, when it comes to the mid size and bigger four pot calipers, it’s just impossible to talk in generalities when it comes to 13” wheels fitting or not. You have to be specific about which caliper/disc type you have - sometimes with the radial mount types, even the specific kit used. At the same time you also have to be specific about the precise alloy wheel make, model and size.

 

As has been said, many 13” options, I suspect probably more the budget to mid price types like many Minilite replicas, have rims that are just too thick for some of the four pot options. Where as the more premium types, like Images range, Compomotive CXR’s etc - all designed to be lighter weight, but strong, are that bit thinner with a bit more room for the calipers.

I have the same calipers (thanks @LoneWolf for correcting the spec) and Compomotive CXR wheels and they fit 👍

[Steve Bosworth]

I can confirm they are Midilites, and would fit under Team Dynamics 1.2 13"

just to give you an idea; this is the midilite kit from rallydesign with 15" wheels
