i have 16' cup wheels

and im thinking of upgrading the disks (bigger the better) and the callipers.
is it possible without using spacers, if so, which ones?

i'm almost certain the Ap/304mm setup won't fit under.
At the minute that means getting a 280mm disc and block out the standard calliper, like Mike Saur front setup or VHS rear upgrade.

if you can wait, there is a pucker upgrade coming soon(hopefully) bespoke 285mm discs billet callipers 4 pot front, 2+2 pot rears(2 for the handbrake)

David, i am not an expert :shrug: but i thought 16 inch wheels were OK for AP brakes or is it the fact they are Cup wheels :whistle:

Only the 11 spoke 16" wheels fit over the APs, without spacers, Bryan.
The nearest are the hairpin 16"s like mine which only need a 1.5mm spacer.:shrug:
