Wilwood brakes and Wheel Sizes

[VT1-R]

Hi,

I have wilwood Big brake kit installed on my EK Civic and want to know if I'm able to fit 15" wheels?

I tried email Wilwood, but haven't received a reply in months now (I'm not located in the USA) :(

I only have my orginal 14" and my 17" show rims, and none of my friends have 15" wheels. Looking at the fitment of the 17's, it looks like that 15" wheels will fit.

I just want to make sure before I buy some racing 15" wheels.

i doubt it... but who knows..its best to have a pro check it out

jesus wilwoods? how much and where did you get them for?

Oh wait, damnit, you're not in the US.

It matters MORE about the make of the rim than the actual size. It would be your best bet to try and telephone wilwood (damn expensive)

i seriously doubt that they will fit behind 15"-ers

[TeriyakiBroccoli]

yea, most big-brake conversions normally opt for 17 and bigger wheels.

it depends on the rotor size... on stock rotors it SHOULD fit most wheels but there are exceptions...

I KNOW that a lot of autoxers at h-t use wilwood big brake setups with 15's but I think they may have all gotten the same wheels because that's what fit it...

your best bet for a yes/no answer is to get in touch with wilwood... or try "fastbrakes.com" or sohfast.com ... they both sell those kits and usually have LOTS of good info.

Thanks for the replys guys, I paid $1600.00AUD for these when our dollar was at $0.56c .... I should have waited and bought them now.

There really good brakes and extra light as well compared to the stockies.

I'll try to get in contact with guys from fastbrakes and sohfast.
