gazmk2 0 Posted November 22, 2009 Do 1.6 alloys fit on a 1.9? cos the ones I just got don't!!! the front brake caliper scrapes on the inside if the wheel. are they a higher offset? and would spacers do the job? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boombang 2 Posted November 22, 2009 Covered loads of times this but just to recap: There are 4 or so different castings of 1.6 alloy Speedlines generally will clear 1.9 calipers, the others won't unless disc and pads are worn. You can run a grinder over the outer edge of the caliper and take a little bit off, then SMRs and possibly the other casting types will then fit on. Running spacers is not required.

gazmk2 0 Posted November 22, 2009 Nice one cheers for that! all 4 wheels are smr. I was just going to get some of them non hub-centric 5mm spacers just to get them to clear as they only just touch on the front, they clear at the rear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
