Audi TT RS front brakes
« on: November 03, 2012, 12:13:08 pm »

You need to ask DaveB but I suspect you'll need 19" rims with different carriers and spacers.
Without traction power is nothing!

Fitted to my mk2 Leon, behind 18" BBS Seat Sport Alloys with a 12mm spacer

I think a spacer is required



Dave's/AP discs help here though as the bell offset creates more caliper clearance IIRC :happy2:

Dave's AP kit uses a 362mm discs instead of 370mm, so the caliper has about 3mm more clearance inside an 18" alloy.
