Smaller rear brakes ???

[D.T.R]

Hey guys I'm having a little problem with my rear wheels. For some reason these 15x10 aren't clearing the rear brakes. What brakes can i put in the rear to help with this? any of the previous mustangs, or mustang v6 brakes?
any help will be greatly appreciated.

Maybe some aeroquick brakes.

^ None of the previous mustangs use smaller rear brakes that can interexhange with ours?

What rear brakes do you have. The 15x10 should clear stock rear brakes exept the ones on the 13 gt500 just fine.

I run 15x10s on my car.

I have stock rear brakes. The 15x10 billet specialties i bought doesn't clear the brakes...
anybody know if any other mustang has a smaller rear brake i can use the rotor/bracket/caliper from to make it clear?

dude i know this LOL... but not all wheels are the same clearly.
I am not running the usual darkstar/RTS/racestar/SVE/etc it's a different wheel.

I looked into this over the weekend. Looks like you have to go back to 99' -04' rear brakes (10") to get somethng smaller than we have (11.8"). I have no idea if they bolt up. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[D.T.R]

^ you might be right.
my buddy has an SN95 in the back of his shop and i was able to put my wheel on that car and it clears the rotor and caliper... but we tried to put the rotor and bracket on my car and it doesn't work without some customization being done... sighhhh

now to find out if 99-04 brakes will bolt onto our cars sighhhh



Anybody by chance knows the size of the rear rotors on a 05-09 mustang V6? i think they're the same...

15x10 with a back spacing of 7.5'' off set somewhere around 40
and did you use one of these?

I can't find an aftermarket rear brake kit either. Everything is bigger

I already have the relocation brackets.. that's not where the problem is. The back of the rear calipers touch/hit the inner part of the wheel.

Try the Baer SS4/Deep Stage brakes. They are more of a race style brake but still streetable with a thicker disc than the all out race ones.

Wilwood make a drag type brake for the rear. We have used them for Billet, Holeshot, and Weld wheels.

Do you have the part number and a price?
also, what size are the rotors?

How do those rear brakes clear being bigger rotors than stock ?
Dang, definitely can't spend $2k worth of brakes just so that the wheels work...

I will see if I can get some pics from our customers.


Only other way yours will not work is they were machined wrong which is very rare.
