p.mole1 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I am looking to replace my 14 rims, with the following Revolution 4 spoke, 13x6 et 24 with 185/60 13 and rears 13x7 et 24 with 205/60 13. This should give the same rear diameter as 185/60 14 and drop the front by around 13 mm. I'm not quite sure what the correct et is for the rear? there seem to be plenty clearance behind the the rear wheel. I am assuming the Caterham suppled Two Gates Minilites have an et of 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p.mole1 Posted July 11, 2020 Author Share Posted July 11, 2020 Thanks, the 13x7 et 24 is listed as a Caterham/ Westfield fitment, but there seem to be so many variables. You can have any offset you like. It looks like there is more space behind the the wheel than at the arch. I don't forsee a problem it is only 13mm either side. I am assuming that all Caterham rear arches are the same dimensions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Area Representative Andrew Gilbert Posted July 11, 2020 Area Representative Share Posted July 11, 2020 the revolution 4 spokes, what front brakes do you have? Std caterham cars or any uprated 4 pots? If the latter you'll need the revolution competition rim as the inside shoulder of the std wheel fouls the calliper.What car are these going on?

p.mole1 Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 Thanks, I'm running the standard brakes, they seem perfectly adequate with upgraded pads. They are going on a 1995 car with Sierra rear calipers and the Spitfire front caliper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
