rear cosworth 24v calipers with 13" rims?

What are the chances of these fitting under 13" rims?

I think those are standard Sierra rear calipers.

With Sierra disks it is difficult to get 13's over them.

Depends on the Rims. People claim they can fit under Compomotive CXR's. Anything else is not possible (prepare to be corrected), I know that 4-spoke revolutions don't fit over unless you get very busy with Mr angry-grinder.

If you turn down your hubs then you can fit escort Mk3 front disks (I know these are on the back) instead of the Sierra disks, and that should buy you enough space to fit most 13inch wheels, but you will need non-standard caliper mounting brackets.


Lots of people have generated lots of iron fillings on exactly this problem!

You need a bit of trial and error, minilites fit with a little grinding on the caliper, minator minilite replicas fit without.

Borrow one and test first !!!
