Nice and easy.....

Is anyone using, or does anybody know if you can use 13" wheels with sierra rear discs and calipers?

Specifically is anybody using RS type 4 spokes?

Cheers.

IIRC I dont think you can. 13" alloys have a much smaller internal diamter than 13" steel wheels.

I think it depends what car there from.
I have some 13" wheels from a cortina that were planned to be used to push the car around the garage during the building stage, but they wouldnt fit the back or front of my car. ( discs all round)

However on my last car I had 13" four spoke Capri wheels and they fitted the front Ok. The rear were drums.

I therefore think that if they fitted the front then they probably would fit the rear as well.

I would think that you will be ok with the Capri four spokes they have a much wider offset.

The ones fitted to the Fiesta Super sport will not fit!

I dont know, but I wouldn't think the Escort ones would fit.

I hope this helps.

Talk to MAC#1, they have a set of 13" wheels on one of their cars.

Yep. I'm putting 13" alloys on mine with Sierra rears and Wilwood fronts.

Talk to Mac#1 as there are a couple of little mods needing done.
What offset are your wheels because some of the ones I looked at won't fit. I'm needing ET35-38.

I've got 13" alloy wheels over sierra rear calipers with hi-spec fronts. Mine are ET24 but i'll have 10mm spacers on the rear but thats only to fill the arches and nothing to do with clearing the caliper.

I have 13" KN Minators over Sierra calipers and the only mod I had to make was to bend the handbrake arms on the calipers slightly to clear the rims.
