I need to find out if my wheels fit over the brembos as I am looking at upgrading to the 4 pot fronts..back brembos are not too much of a concern but would be nice to check for the future...im in Nowra which is about 2 hours south of sydney or about 1 hour south of the gong.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything with big dish forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
