   do brembo's fit under all 15 inch alloys or is it hit and miss if they fit

   thought they went on with standard brakets.
   
   Either way, you may find you need spacers, dependson the wheel

   Its the actual thickness of the brembos that are the problem, they will sit inside the 15" rim but without spacers they will most likely grind against the spokes of the wheel.
   
   Williamsvts had a very tight squeeze to fit them, you will probably need a 10mm spacer for most wheels, more if you want to keep your vts ones.

    you will need some wide wheels on mate. i ahve them behind 15" team dynamics pro race 1.2s, but they com in a ford offset with15mmish spacers, and they just fit.
    i am using the 283mm discs and thats the biggest you can use, from the 307 and gti180.
    no brakets are needed they just bolt straight on.
