Title: Erco and discbrakes Post by: GetBackOnTrack on March 13, 2008, 20:49:27 pm Anybody in here run discbrakes up front with the erco bubble rims, If you do so, how did you get it to fit inside the rim?
I wanna ad discbrakes, but dont wanna get rid of my erco starcut wheels. Heard something about the wilwood caliber will allmost clear the rim, is that true?? any input would be appreciated...

The inner half has a larger ID-shape to clear most disc brake kits, unlike the old DDS wheel, where the inner and outer were the same. Hope this helps.
