Title: 205 mm front disk brakes ? Post by: Black Sheep on July 17, 2010, 14:58:15 pm Hi guys I wonder if you can help me here ?
Im going over to 205mm stud patten from 130mm . Ive got a pair of CB King & Link dropped spindles which run late vw post 66 discs with stock calipers . Ive seen quite a few front disc conversions for wide five all loads of $$ , Are any of these discs that come with these kits transferable to use on late spindles and calipers ? I don't want to run with a pair of those awfull 4 to 5 stud adaptors . Just thought it would be cool if I could get some new discs to fit what I've got here . Any input greatfully recived , Cheers glenn . Title: Re: 205 mm front disk brakes ?

Would be nice to have dropped spindles again ( better ride quality ) with a stock offset /displacement to save me having to narrow the beam 8) |
