Title: Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 - Will they fit a MK5 Golf R32/MK2 Leon Cupra?
Post by: djhorace on 21 August 2008, 13:57
Some dealers reckon that the front brakes on the R32/Cupra TFSi are too big for these wheels. Can anyone confirm one way or another?

i -think- you need to get the 19" ones to clear the calipers. I'd considered some for mine, but they have to be made to order so no chance to test-fit one.

Forgot you've got bigger anchors than me AL..  :embarassed: Didn't realise they didn't fit though..  :huh:
Would say you could try one of mine, but you live 8000000000000000000000000000000000000 miles away.. :undecided:

The 18" version should clear no problem I would have thought.

Regal's GTI has the 343mm Alcon 4 pots, with 8x18" Pro Race 1.2's, and no need for spacers either. they go straight on!

the R32/Leon Cupra brakes are 345mm so only 2mm more than the Alcon set up.
