Actually they don't fit 100%.

The knuckle on the RX7 caliper hits the wheel.

Needs to be shaved a bit or maybe i'll get a spacer.

good to know - as I got the calipers on the shelf but never gotten around making an adapter...
I guess it differs with different adapters/discs - what adapter/discs are you using?

I'm using custom adapters based on the ones that are on the web. The measures are the same probably.

The discs are the Mini Cooper S ones...

I have some pictures...

They fit.

The knuckle on the Caliper is the one hitting the Wheels!

I'll make a 3mm spacer that will also serve as center ring for the wheels Smile

Cheers!

Ah I see so it's not a diameter rather an offset issue. This is very common with ET 0 and lower wheels. A disc with more offset and and corresponding adapter would work too obviously.
