Help from Speedline 2118 owners please

[avstar1]

Would somebody be kind enough to measure the inside radius of their wheel. I've got comp-brakes and want to know the radius so I can find 15 inch wheels which will fit over them.

If you measure diagonally across two bolt holes this will give you an accurate measurement of the wheel.

Thanx in advance

do you want to pop over and try fitting a wheel? i'm only in solihull

Thanx for the offer fred but I got no wheels at all at the mo so that will be a bit difficult. just need someone to measure them for me so I got an idea of clearance

 

[Fred@BTM]

where you live?

there is literally a few MM clearence between the calliper and the rim with the 2118's.

As you need to run external weights as the calliper fouls them.

Thanx for that Matt, does that mean you wouldn't recommend running them with the 15 inch 2118's?

apparently they foul the inside of the wheels as the mounting brackets flex slightly when being abused, iirc pye21 ran them with his 2118's and they scraped the inside of the wheels, nothing major but they did catch

running them shouldnt be a problem.

thats what i will be running.

Makavelli - i thought he had slight damage as he didnt get the weights reoved and the callipers just ripped them off? There shouldnt be any flex from the calliper or braket!
