The Quest to fit 10 Inch Wide Rims on the front.!

[MR2]

They have started selling in Aus, I assume it's the same Taiwan factory that makes them all...

I've not had a problem with my ksport other than the origional Rotor...generally the pads they ship them with are crap, I'd get Ksport instead frankly as I've tried and tested them.

my next upgrade will be to a larger set of Ksports.

here in my country a lot of peoples are using these brakes. most of them told me that they are the same as ksport & d2racing.
have you ever heard of these??
they have bbk kits for 3000GT
XYZ Auto Parts

they'd have to have a pretty killer price for me to opt for those over stoptechs. if i'm going to put red brake calipers on my car; i've got a LOT of options. hell, i'd probably go for baer > everything else.

last I checked they were very very cheap.

[stealthTT]

a front kit 286mm x 26 mm - which is smaller than we have, but to give you a clue about the price, 890 eur with a 6 pistons calliper.
also they go up to 400mm discs and 8 pistons callipers, floating discs.

286x86 is scary...would not even bother changing the brakes before you go 356 or above (below that and honestly I suspect the stock brakes will be just as good with some good pads + SCE Wide rotor kit))

i second that. 330mm kits are just not enough of an upgrade over 2g tt brakes to be worth it, imho.

MR2 your ride looks great I love the wheel choice. I am currently running Axis Sevens 19x10's with a 275/30/19 tire with spacers on my 92 stealth tt stock struts and tein springs. Do you think the XXR's will clear the stock calibers on a 1st gen TT? To me they look damn close from the pics. My current rims are getting old the chrome is pitting and there is scratching on some of the rims. I'm on the edge not sure if i should try your setup and run my same tires and hope for the best or powder coat my rims. Any thoughts? Here are a few pics of my car.

if you can make a brake template (looks like the below link) aka get me the below measurements I'll make a template here and find out + pix

just get me the basic measurements (in that example I need to know the 38mm one and the 380-102(102mm) one.

I love the axis seven rim, too bad it will not fit on a 2nd gen.

10.5" info.

Rubber:
looks like a 305/30R19 would fit perfectly...

Rims:
only bothering to look at stuff that's under $500 per rim and has SOME brake clearance+offset
a few JDM spec 19x10.5's are turning up...SSR Type C (22lbs, +45 offset, low cap clearance 27mm, high 37mm??)

305/30R19 is also a good size for fairly cheap tyres....mmmmmmm will measure up after the new suspension arrives
