Wheel Fit
TCE is often asked; "Will your brake kit clear my wheels?"
The answer is not always so easy. While most TCE kits are intended to fit stock or factory wheels some do not. And others may fit the stock wheel and not the aftermarket. This is due to the wheel design, not just the offset. Diameter is important with regard to kit diameter: 12.2" kits require 16+ wheels, 13" kits 17+, 14" kits 18+ and 16" kits 20s or larger. Often the issue becomes the rotor width and caliper choice. Calipers which are much wider than stock will compromise spoke clearance. And if paired with wider rotors as well- things get tight in a hurry.Below you will find a way to measure you wheels for brake kit clearance. The picture will show you these instructions quite clearly.Remove a wheel and place on the floor or bench face down. Place a flat edge onto the hub face of the wheel. From this flat plane measure down into the back of the spoke with a steel ruler or similar tool. This will need to be verified at a radius of 4" up to a radius of 7" for most kits. Radius is distance from wheel hub center. Shown in the pic is a clearance of approximately 23mm. From this number add about 1/8" or 2.5mm air gap to clear the caliper. This is the distance required for your brake kit.Scroll down the "Wheel Clearance Chart" and find your vehicle. From there the kit you're interested in and then the caliper of choice if there are options. You'll note that there are some differences in the BSL6n when fit to .81 rotors or 1.10 rotors. This is due to having pad spacers on place to fit the narrow six to the .81 rotor on center. If you have questions or are considering a custom kit other than what is listed please call.
NOTE: the picture below references fit for a 13" rotor. To check fit of a 14" kit take your farthest reading at about 7 1/2" from center to account for the increase in rotor diameter. For 16" rotor kits please contact TCE so we can share some pdf info with you to help visualize your huge needs.
