Brembo Brake Woes...

[hozer]

I have monster 6pot Front and 4 Pot rears. Same ones as Charles for those of you that have seen his... Everything fits in the rim, but the caliper sit ultra close to the rim, like credit card thickness away...

It gets this close at the corners where they kinda flare out. My question is, is this ok or will my rims deflect enough to make this an issue? I have 18x9.5 CE28N +15. If it is I'm just gonna grind it down.

But essentially just wanted to let everyone know that 19' rims would prolly be best to run these brakes with

caliper distance to the spoke is what?

And the credit card thickness is to the barrel of the rim?

Caliper to spoke is tons, no issue there. And yes Credit card thickness is to the barrel

I think that's fine.

I do not think it will deflect that much. Drive it an see.

Deflecting left to right will be very very slight if any, deflection in and out should not happen unless you hit a curb. Remember the tire is there to take up 100% of the load.
