Re: [Amc-list] More Cheap Brakes

Thanks!
 I wonder what the reason is they have not fixed the typo on the bolt pattern?
I know what the others show is 5 X 4.5" pattern.

As for caliper clearance to wheels, what I can find as a rule of thumb for "most" disc brakes is you need a wheel 4"s larger than the rotor.
  Obviously there is some fudge factor with rotor depth moveing the calipers back and wheel design etc;
I'm waiting for the calipers to get here before I do anymore cyphering on this.
   The Cobra rear rotors may be the ticket if they don't shove the caliper out into the wheel.
