Default 378mm Options

Hi guys,

just wondering what the options are for the 6spot Brembo's? Increasing to a DBA 5000 hat and a 378mm rotor with spacers for the Calipers?

Cheers

Can be done but also have to run new alloy hats because the bolt pcd is bigger for the larger rotor. I think we can do spacers on the alloy brackets but not sure on the cast factory brackets as the spacers need to be 11.5mm and recessed into the bracket so total cost is pretty big plus you then have the problem of to much flex in the hub and rotor and you may get pad knock off.

We are doing some new brake kits made in Australia for about $2500
355mm 6 piston $2500
381mm 6 piston $2500

Thank you, already having the 6's on the front trying to keep costs low when the need for new rotors are required.

Minimum wheel size for the 381mm diameter kit I assume is 19'' (or is it 20")

Thanks

Yes 19" but like all brake kits sometimes individual wheels would have to be checked for clearance
