Another Prima front brakes question

Post by Rotoariesarecool »

Could I get the diameter and width of the Prima front brake rotors. This will allow me to buy 4x100 rotors in the same size

How about the rear brakes? It's a lot of work changing the rear.

There isn't going to be an exact match 4x100 version of the rotor we use. It would need to be the same diameter, same friction area, same friction thickness, same hat ID, and same hat to friction surface offset.

Either have a machine shop drill 4x100 holes in our supplied rotor or run 4x98 wheels as the cars came with stock. Don't go unicorn hunting.

How about what on the rear brakes? The OP is asking about our performance fronts.

It's fine. Most people forget that simple things are sometimes more complex. Brakes are kinda a big deal.
