    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...

    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.

    Steve, they are Alberts brackets.

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

    Which caliper adapters did you use?

    A friend, for example, has 406mm disc inside an 18" wheel...

    My S8 discs (with the standard Brembo calipers) didn't fit under Audi Avus 17" rims once balance weights were involved. Pretty tight without. Spacers would have easily resolved it though.
