You want diameter of the barrel a certain distance off the face of the hub. What distance, I'm not sure. If it's like my wheels, it'll be tapered there and a **** to measure.

If I'm not mistaken, you need 13.4" diameter at some point.



So you should be cewl, if you have interference with spokes with dial-ins I will pay you .02

Now who wants to trade flatouts for dials?

Yes it do.

See the bottom right corner. Disc diameter is 11.56, so I used the 11.75 disc diameter "E" measurement (171mm/25.4*2) + 13.4" and some change.

That is to the very outside of the caliper, so if you want 1/8" of clearance it should be right.

And that's why it's a good thing I calculated that 13.4" off an 11.75" disc while you are using a 294/11.57" disc. As the rotor is nearly 1/2" smaller, it should give you 1/8" extra clearance.

Maybe, but you would be really really close.

I don't think you're gonna save much weight if you leave the stock caliper on there too.

The picture you took is with the piece of aluminum resting on the wheel mounting surface, right? If so I think you are golden. It looks a lot like the pic I posted of the location of the hump on my 15x9 Dial Ins. My 15x7 wheels locate the interfering hump about 1" over and is the reason I can't fit 11.5" rotors under my 15x7's. You should be good to go.

Compare your picture with the ones I posted of my 15x7 and 15x9 wheels a few pages back.

15x7 had the mounting surface 1-1/4" in from where the raised lip on inside of wheel starts or 1-1/4" closer to caliper.

<p>Mine looks like it could be maybe an 1/8-1/4 inch farther in than the 15x9. But a lot better than the x8.</p><p>Rotors should be here today. Woke turbofan up and stole his BP-10s. Centering rings showed up in the mail a few days ago.</p>

Post pics when you get it mocked up!!! I hope the 11.5" will fit 15x8. Ill just have to sell my 15x7 and get x8 or find someone that will trade.

Weve gone over this before(that exact drawing). Do I need to tech you how to read a drawing?


I want 3D printer. Since I know nothing of these, whats the bare minimum to get into one? I know its a vague question, but I donmt know what im asking. maybe 10" minum envelope?
