Mycarispurty Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 Any of you guys running 4.5" to 5" bs or a little more having any trouble with brakes getting in the way so the wheel won't fit on correctly? I think I'm almost ready to purchase those Rota D2s I posted about the other day, and thought I'd see if anyone has had a problem with something like that. I'll probably be happy going with the Toyo 4 piston brake upgrade, maybe the ones that fit the Z31 rotor, just depends on what deal I find at the time I'm ready to purchase. I don't think I'll ever need some big blingin' Wilwood setup or something unless I find a good deal on some used ones or something. Anyways just thought I'd throw this out there and see if anyone could take a stab at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifton Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 I run a 15x10 with a 5" BS on my 71 with the early 11.5" Wilwwods amd they clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v8dats Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 please tell me more about this early wilwood kit. is it no longer available? i will be looking for a brake kit that clears 15 inch rims other than the z31 route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifton Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 They won't clear all 15's but do clear Keizers. I want to say I've heard they clear Panasports too, but not 100% on that. Samller rotor but same caliper as the new ones but doesn't use an offset bracket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Poly Zmanaustin Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 They won't clear all 15's but do clear Keizers. I want to say I've heard they clear Panasports too, but not 100% on that. They will not clear 15" panasports without a little work. My buddy has the same early Wilwood kit with 15" Panasports, but had the wheels machined for clearance. Have no idea how much was taken off.
