That's easy. It does seem that I will believe anything sometimes?
I agree that it is the inner profile of the wheel that would determine clearance.
Probably there is enough room in the rear with the 10" Campi to run the 16-4 but the front caliper is so thick that I think not.
Considering what those calipers cost, I wouldn't want to buy a set, then be disappointed that the 8 x 15 Campi will not fit without a thick spacer, if at all?
I think that probably a 1/2" thick spacer would still allow the tire to clear the fender lip but why take chances on speculation?
Where's Bosswrench? What do you think? Will those "Girling" 18-4 aluminum calipers fit inside of that wheel? Do I remember correctly in you stating that you have worked on that setup before?
Few have actually seen or worked on that particular combination in person. Very difficult to find that answer without just experimenting "yourself".
THEN you have to go make adapters!
Incidentally does anyone know if the Girling #'s on the 18-4 and 16-4 calipers refer to anything specifically like the thickness of the rotors used with them etc?
The 18-4 uses the 1.25" (31.75mm) thick rotor, the rear is 7/8" (22.2mm) right?
What was the outside diameter of the rotors that you wound up with Kid? The 12.19" od number keeps popping up but I haven't done specific research yet on this?
