What size wheel for AD22VF brakes?

[CMF_OZChris]

Hi All

What is the minimum wheel size (13", 14") that I can run with AD22VF brakes?

Alternatively, can some one measure the radius of the outer edge of the caliper to the hub centre for me.

Thanks
Chris

It's 14" minimum mate

Bugger, is that the same for AD18V?

13" will fit if you have the right wheels.

haha half the reason i dont want to upgrade brakes coz then i gotta buy new wheels!

Anyone in Melbourne for AD22VFs so I can try my 13s?

Or can someone measure the diameter required to clear the calipers please

MickB does I have a set of 13s that fit over them, they are just some random old 13x6 meshies

Thanks, I'll give Mick a call

I have these random Globe replicas in 13x7

you need large negative offset 13,s to clear them eh, my 12" (with 14" centre,s) 1/4 mile wheels would probably clear them

A lot to do with wheel design too, most steel wheel centres fold back in and hit on calipers. OzChris if they really are 13x7 you might be out of luck, they look quite positively offset for a 7". I would have guessed they were a 5.5" or 6"

I have a set on the car + a mostly complete spare set,
I'll be back in Melb in 2/2. 5 weeks if you can wait.
Otherwise pickapart @ kylsith has heaps of 18v if you are in a hurry.
One of my previous Micras had 18v with carbon pads, would be well enough stopping power for what you need + lighter too.

Oops just checked the width and it is 6" between the beads.

Cheers Mick, no rush.

they may fit in your alloys. I would be going for the 18v though if I were you. Even with $40 **** pads I had zero braking issues in my turbo micra on full slicks last weekend. Much cheaper too!

Great to know. I pick up a set of used Yoko semis on Sat

here's the dimensions of the ad22vf calipers the wheel has to clear
