Brembo 4 -pot brake system can be installed with R90 rims

Hi all,

Does anyone know Brembo 4-pot brake system can be installed with R90 rims? It is beacuse I noticed many MCS with Brembo wear aftermarket rims instead of original Mini rims.
Please advice me if Brembo can be installed within R90 rims.

Thanks.

Andrew

in a word no the brembo will not fit behind any of the 15 - 17 inch mini rims ive seen them on a jcw 18 rim car (ask RVW as he has them on his jcw 18's) and im not sure if they will with spaces either or how much spacing they would need to

Not sure about the R90 but I do know that the S spokes will fit cosI have tried them.
I beleive I have a 10mm spacer with my JCW wheels but with the S spoke it could be less.

Does depend on the kit i know Lohen has started doing one but i know that the kits me an RVW run are fairly accomodating, considering i run a 330mm brembo 4 pot kit by Ray West with a wheel that has one of the worst clearances ever ( Breyton Magic Sports) i run an 11mm spacer an everythings on, or well it was till i fitted my coilovers , now its eating the inside of the front plastic arches
