Disc offset is indeed something to be careful with.

The more offset inwards, the less wheel spacer you might need, but the thicker your caliper adapter will need to be.

Except for that, the offset is both limited by the steering rack pivot point, and as Doug does mention, the possibility your caliper will hit suspension parts.

Weight and sizes:

Front:
Original calipers (2) without pads 10,92Kg
Modified 18/4 BG calipers (2) without pads 7,48Kg

Original discs 280mm solid (2) 13,28Kg
BG discs alloy hats - 304x28mm vented (2) 13,6Kg

Back:
Original calipers (2) without pads 6,55Kg
BG ORA calipers incl handbrake (2) without pads 7,82Kg

Original discs 297mm solid (2) 14,28Kg
BG discs alloy hats - 290x12,7mm solid (2) 9,24Kg

As for the Campi wheels - dunno...
Would depend on the inside (back) shape of the wheel.

I combine everything with 15X8 and 15x10 steel wheels, and that just barely fits - some things get really close... Red Face
