as the title suggests, does anyone know if a 13" wheel will fit over an ra60 brake set up? i am planning on using these on my ae86. if not could anyone suggest a vented disc/caliper upgrade that will fit under 13" wheels?
also, the camber problem related with fitting the RA60 struts, is this caused by a differant angle between the strut body and stub axle? or differant offset on the plate that bolts to the bottom of the strut and ball joint? i ask this as i am planning to run quite a wide front wheel, and so dont really want to increase the track width to remedy the problem. if it is just the mounting plate, i could probably use the ra60 (or some other) control arm. if its caused by the angle though, i might need to think of something else. cheers.
Dimitri.

1. No, you need minimum 14" wheels. I can't think of anything that will fit under 13" wheels apart from JDM AE86 vented brakes, and they aren't that much of an upgrade anyway. The whole problem with stock AE86 brakes is they're too small, and if you want bigger brakes you need bigger wheels.
2. It's the angle of the stub axle.
