Default Does Wilwood Road Race Brake kit work with Mugen M7's 15"s on a Del Sol???

Does Wilwood Road Race Brake kit work with Mugen M7's 15"s on a Del Sol??? I am thinking about buying a set of the Wilwood Road Race Kit which allows you to stay with 15" wheels. I currently have Mugen M7's 15x6.5" on my Del Sol with stock brakes on the front. I want to know if it will clear? I'm afraid to buy it and find out that it won't work or it will damage my super expensive bling wheels. Please help!!!

You'll have to run a low offset 15" or a regular offset 16 at least.

It's going to depend on the 15" wheel, and depend on the 16" wheel.

What are you using it for? the track? or bling?

Because I'd save my money and just get good pads, rotors, fluid, and a 15/16th Master cylinder and I would probably stop faster than you with your $1300+ brake kit.

Call Wilwood with the wheel size and offset.
Don't trust someone from a forum as they are not going to pay the bill for your brake if it doesn't fit, and WilWood is not going to take them back becuase you say "JohnDoe from Honda-tech said they would work".

However, it is extremely unlikely for the 15" wheel to fit. You'd have better luck with the 16", and you would still need to contact WilWood with that information.
