Hey Barry, you sure of that 300mm disc size? I put 310 x 28mm ones inside 15" wheels (Compomotive MO) with the same Brembo reds. The 16" ones (Compomotive MO again) can accept same calipers with 323mm discs at least!

Barry,
Question:What is the biggest front disc + caliper combo i can fit with standard 6*15 campagnolo wheels?My current setup consists of standard GTV6 Brembo calipers+ standard GTV6 discs as well (in a 2 liter GTV though).

Respect.

P.S: Can we have some photos of the white beast i see in the small picture under your forum name?

Jim,This chap is using old original ,I think,Gotti race wheels on this car.Im also making them fit the Compomotive cx and fh split rim.
I cannot get a 305mm AND the caliper in there..Ive just fitted a std Campagnola gtv6 rim and I can tell you that it does not go over the rim either...
Maybe a more modern rim will go over bigger stuff...its posible,but 328mm???????????????????????????

See all the q marks??you sure,Mr Scnitsel??

The rule is a six inch or 150mm rule..the gap from wheel to disc is 2cm..

Mmmm,error of parralax here..the rule is in line with the edge of the rim..

A few components I made for the conversion..when Im done I ll post the rest..

Hey Barry,
Wanna put that bottle down for a while until you can talk some sense??? I'm having a hard time reading between hiccups!!

I can send you them pics again if you want. Like I said, 310+reds for 15"MO's and 323+reds for 16". As you say though, the Compomotives are one of the roomiest wheels around.

Thanks Barry,
i have to admit that it must have been more than highly impressive back in '86 (something close to starship enterprise perhaps?)

Ok,finished all the dog work today..all fits nicely and works a treat..

These wheels,btw,are Speedlines,not Gotti`s..They also have NO place to fit a half descent set of brakes within them..damn,I had to cut the 310mm disc down to 297mm AND mill some off the Brembo calipers....

A bitch wheel if I ever saw one....
Everything fits perfectly under the std. 30l Compomotive without any mods,but the client wants the option of both sets of wheels..
