Will 345mm 4pot brakes fit under 17x8 MSystem II wheels?
Hey guys,

Just a quick one, can anyone confirm for me that the 345mm / 4 pot brakes from the '95 M5 fit under the 17x8 MSystem II wheels with turbine covers? I'm sure i've read here somewhere before that they will, but I just wanted to make sure before I went and spent a whole lot of money...

Thanks in advance

Regards

John

Yes they will. I ran a set of them minus covers on my 3.8 6-speed as track wheels - didn't have any problems with brakes overheating either.

Faz also has the later brakes on his 5-speed 3.8 with 17" T-Stars.

Thanks very much for that. I'm going to by some new track rubber for them on Monday and want to make sure before I spent all that money. Cheers
