Default Wilwood brakes and SSR competitions

anyone know if the 11inch wilwood big brake kit will fit under 15 inch SSR competitions? i know the sport compact car EG has the 12.19 inchers with 16 SSRs so should the 11 inch kit fit with the 15's?

thanks

Not your exact setup, but 15x7.5 +43 SSR Comps fit over the 11" Fastbrakes/Wilwood kit on my 91 CRX. This kit uses the Wilwood Dynalite caliper. I've found with most 15" wheels (well at least all the ones I've tried), its not the inner diameter that you have to worry about, but the spoke design clearing the caliper face. After that, how the spoke joins at the wheel barrel can be an issue.

The SSR's seem to have the most space in those critical areas compared to other wheel designs with the same dimensions.

P.S. You may have to watch how your tire shop guy installs wheel weights. If they like to put the weights just behind the spokes and/or double stack them there may be some interference.
