    A friend, for example, has 406mm disc inside an 18" wheel...
    Possibly maybe with no brake caliper!

      Which caliper adapters did you use?

        Steve, they are Alberts brackets.

        and Ian, the numbers don't relate to wheel diameter.

          Hi
          I've a BIG caliper from E55AMG with 8 pots (4 pads for each one) with 360mm disc and it touch on an OEM Seat 17x7 rim, but I think with a little sanding job on the caliper, the rim goes fine.

            With a large radial caliper, certainly Porsche monoblocks wouldn't fit.

            I'm just trying to make the point that it depends hugely on the caliper and wheel...

            My Brembos are fitted with a 365mm disc and only just fit inside genuine 18" RS4 wheels...
            Honda CBR 1100XX Blackbird Turbo....undergoing major changes.....
            S2 Coupe... bit easier off the line...

                  Is anyone using this bracket under a 17" wheel?

                        Good afternoon, in your case you had 345mm discs with brembo 4 piston S8 D2 calipers ?? I want to mount this combination on 17 audi S6 C5 rims and I doubt if it will be possible.

                          350mm disc with 6pot 18ZL/ZR Porsche calipers fits under Speedline S6 C5 rim, but its extreamly close to the wheel drum.

                            Good morning, thank you very much, also the other day I saw another colleague who had mounted the same braking as me with the same tires and said there were no problems.

                                As per my photos above. I think that a 17 would fit on mine but it will depend on the type of wheels and caliper

                                The team dynamics I have seem to be good for clearance.
