    Default 16" wheels for 166 Brembo's

    Hi. I now have found a 16" wheel that I can buy locally that fits with the 166 brembo calipers. They are 16 x 7 ET38. Called Sirroco - and available blank so that they can be drilled 4x98.

    They would not have fitted with "original bracket" however as there is only 3.5mm clearance around the internal rim. Modifying the bracket so that there is no overhang on the pads puts the caliper 5mm closer to the hub centre - that's why it fits!

    I am going to paint them before I put them on... any ideas for color?

    Question - what is the official size of the hub ring (that the wheel sits on..) I measure it as 57.9?

    Thanks.. Jimm~
