   Tehy do fit but are tight under 15's and you will need to upgrade the cylinder.
   
   Williamsvts has some they look mint!!!!
   
   I was all set for it but the vts rims dont like them.

   Yeah they fit mate only fit under a coupe of 15ins rims tho best off gettin 16ins.
   As said u need to uprate the master cyclinder.
   Also think the hoses are a bastard to sort

   normal hoses fit, im using the OMP braided hoses. its not the diameter of teh wheel thats the problem its the width, so you'll need a motorsport style wheel, im using team dynamics pro race 1.2
   standard MC is ok to use with up but try to upgrade to a MC marked '23'.

   it wont be the width, it will be the off set that is critical.

    These brembo will fit 406 v6 and fiat 20v turbo. You use 283mm disc and you need 15in wheels. retail £380 each or £200 from breakers. One of the best brake upgrades for the money.
