Can anyone confirm if the new FG MKII 19" wheel that comes with the Luxury Pack upgrade will clear 6&4pot Brembo's or Harrop's Monobloc 4pot brake kit?


Thanks.

Sorry no but and easy way to check is if you know someone with a AU 11 or 111 BA BF or FG that has Brembo's you could try your wheel on that car for clearance.

Thanks, I was seriously hoping to avoid that... guess I got no choice. Its either trying to fit the wheel on a Brembo kitted car or asking Parts and Service at one of the Ford dealerships.

I have no idea mate, I think its probably same offset as stock FG again not sure, I forgot to ask them and on their website offset isnt listed so I was hoping someone on the site actualy has the same wheel's and not sure if they are open now I have got u number saved when they called about tyres(they supoosed to deliver Pireli P zero but they "run out") of them so they delivering them with Pireli Rosso instead. Friend of mine said he doubt they can clear Brembo's so I want to make sure otherwise I'll have to go with DBA's set up.

I reckon you will need +33 or higher offset to clear the Brembos

My Zumbo Vaiges have +30 and has plenty of clearance. It's the profile of the center & spokes that makes the difference

They look as if they will based on current data and other posters.

I thought + 33 offset was the minimum but +30 will fit based on BAGT514 comment.

As always you need to experiment.

You will need quite a bit more then that because you have to think about the other set of pistons.

unless you wheels are flexing/wobbling the clearance won't change.

Note to keep you wheel bearings in good condition.

you're right. the thing to look out for is the wheel bearing, if that is worn the entire hub+rotor+wheel will be able to move relative the the caliper.

the photo (which the link is broken, but easily fixed), shows what appears to be already a 4-pot Brembo in place.

Just fitted a set of brembos to my car tonight and the front calipers clear the rims by barely 1mm! Will this be an issue at all? I have driven the car and there seems to be no rubbing etc.

Shouldn't be,the 18"s I race with have tiny clearance too, they've never caused a problem under the harshest conditions.

What's the best offset for 20" KMC Rockstars on a FG GT (4p Brembos)?
Can I do a staggered setup without touching the fenders?
