16" imola wheels all round?
Discussion
Has anyone ever fitted 16" imolas all round? I am getting parts together to do the brembo 324mm disc conversion and wondered about getting a pair of rear wheels to go on the front to clear the new brakes
So if any has fitted them to the front, were there any issues and have you got any pics??
Thanks in advance

I think there are opinions around as to whether they will fit under 16 inch wheels. I have 324mm discs with Bremsport calipers under 17 inch wheels.....but have to admit that I was told I would need 17 inch wheels, so got some., never tried 16 inch. My calipers look fairly slimline to me. Shall I check the clearance for you tomorrow?
You could try a 16 inch wheel on my car if you like to test it. I am 40 miles from you and also have some 5mm spacers to hand to get the offset about right. I believe you need 8 mm spacers to use rear Imolas accurately on the front. Either way, over 6mm you will need longer studs.

Have fitted the brakes but unfortunately the calipers just catch the wheel . But i think with a thin spacer and a lower profile tyre( like in Richards post above ) they will be ok. I do like the look of the 16" on the front as it seems to fill the arch better
I have put the feelers out for some 17s but would like to make the 16s work somehow for a better ride
Anyone got a pair of 16" imolas for sale
