I would like to go back to 10 inch wheels on my clubby, but it has 8.4 inch brakes on it, is there anyone who would like to do a straight swap? Just brake disc & caliper only, as they are inter changeable.

Graham has some 12x6 superlights with some low profile yokohama tyre which makes the overall outside diameter of the tyre is very very close to the same diameter as a 10inch tyre (within maybe 1 or 1/2 an inch). So that could be a solution doogie...cept the tyres are about $230 a corner...

My car has 12 inch superlights on it already, but i like the 10's better. Thanks but no thanks on the civic brakes, i just need a S disc & caliper.

S rotors won't fit on 8.4 drive flanges, they are way different.
So ya may need S drive flanges too. :wink:

Kev, i've swapped them over before with no dramas, the flanges on my MK1 are off a 1275 LS.
