Anyone out there have Baer 13" front disc brakes with 17" TTII's. I saw a post in the Protouring/G machine forum that stated this combination would not work due to clearance issues.
Thanks

TT's have a tendencey for the spokes to contact the calipers on the 13" C5/PBR setup. Every combo is different though, you'll just have to try and run spacers if they don't clear.

My former 68 Elky had 17x8 TT II's with Baer's 13" Track front kit. No clearance problems.

I have zero problems with my 13" Baer's and TTII Classic wheels. It's close, but plenty of room.

Thanks guys, that puts my mind at ease!! I didn't want to have to deal with spacers.
Cheers

No problems here either with the C4-style calipers and 13" rotors.
