I am unsure but if the wheels are on the car can you measure the distance between the outside rotor face and the inside of the spoke at the most outer part of the disc and let me know.

Unfortunately I don't have them fitted as stupid me listened to a ford tuning shop who said getting fpv brembo's would be the best bang for your buck but never said anything about upgrading wheels. Anyway in an roh product catalogue it said that both the 18's and 19's in the shadow chrome fit fpvs or xr6 with brembo so seeing as though I just spent over a thousand bucks on a set of potenzas these wheels have let me breath a sigh of relief
So here's a pic to go on the list too

After booking the car into bridgestone the guy has now gone a but cautious about saying they will def fit so he said once they fit one can I check that they will be ok before putting the rest on. So currently it just has the standard brakes so once he fits one wheel what clearance measurement am I looking for that will mean the brembos will definitely clear? Thanks for your help matt. I bought a fair bit of stuff through race brakes for my vl turbo show car and like everyone on here will agree when I say that your willingness to help people and your knowledge is second to none and is greatly appreciated

Thanks for the feedback.Generally the wheel manufacturer will know if it fits the factory Brembo brakes. What i generally use for the front is this
"measure the distance between the outside rotor face and the inside of the spoke at the most outer part of the disc and you need atleast 90mm gap"
I will try and find a template and we are finally working on a Brembo 6 pot kit that moves inwards a fair bit plus we have other kits under way that sit minimum 10mm further in.
