[s-cars] BIG Red Brakes and 16 inch Rims

[mlp]

Dave -

It may depend on the mounting brackets.  I just put a new set of Nokian RSi
tires on my Avant using a set of the 1993 model year OEM 16x8 wheels.  The
Avant is fitted with the Porsche 993 323mm brake rotors with Big Red
calipers.  There is, I will admit, less than almost nothing circumferential
clearance.  The system on the car is NOT a BIRA product, so.... it back to a
mounting bracket question.  Some one on the BIRA list ought to be able to
clear this up.
