[s-cars] Big Brake Upgrade question, but NAC - Jaguar

Hi folks,

 

I put Porsche calipers on my S6 this year and am now looking at up grading
the brakes on my Jaguar XJ8. It just so happens that the XJ8 rotor is 305mm,
the same as the rotors I put on my S6 so I'm looking to use the 993 C4
caliper again! Standard Jaguar R Brembo calipers would bolt on but require
355mm rotors and 20 inch wheels!

 

Question: is 26mm width rotor too small for the caliper? Recall the 305
rotor is 30mm wide and C4 gap 32mm.

 

Cheers,

 

Tony

96 S6 - with the XJ8 needing Porsche brakes too
