R32 in 17'' Monza

(1/3) > >>

Nikiforos:
Hi I would like to know if r32 front brakes are compatible in Monzas 17'' without spacers.

Thanks

Richn83:
Dont know definateively but I doubt they will fit inside any 17" rims, there was barely space for the standard GTI brakes inside the 17" monza's.  Spacers will also only increase the offset to give you greater clearance from the spokes so dont think they will help in this situation, provided my assumption about the wheel diameter being insufficient.

As my AP Racing big brakes most defiantly do fit inside the OEM Monza 17's then I reckon that a OEM R32 brake will fit unless the R32 calipers are too fat.

That would be a very heavyweight option though and cancel out much of the weight advantage of your TT arms.

Ok I really didnt think there would be space for the R32's inside a 17" rim, my apologies if incorrect.

They do, will try and find the picture.
