Not of the top of my head, but Brembo carry technical drawings of all their discs on their aftermarket catalogue so it's probably on there.http://www.bremboaftermarket.com/En/Car_Disc_Catalogue/Catalogue_Search.aspx ________________________________________ Rich |

Lol, no, you'll need to calculate it yourself based on what you mean by offset. All the measurements you need are there.________________________________________ Rich |

....basically what i'm looking into is running the 406 brembos AND keeping the cyclones, i really don'tfancy having my wheels hanging off 20mm spacers, so i'm thinking of spacing the calipers away from the hubs hence why i need to know offset. i have been looking at bells etc on hispec site, prices seem reasonable so aiming to do all this and use say 10mm hubcentric adaptors, machining isnt too much off a problem as my mate does this for a living yes it's probably pointless but i want brembos and clones! |

the discs you need to use as a straight bolt on are the brembo 09.7877.10.overall height is 34.2mm, thickness of 28.1, bell thickness of 7mm, so effective offset inwards of 0.9mm from the face of the drive flange. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Trouble is Mei, he wants to move the calipers (and therefore discs) inwards to minimise the distance the wheels (cyclones in this case) need to be spaced outwards.Clearance between the balljoints and the inner face of the discs will be the critical factor to consider with that plan. That's what will determine how far the caliper and disc assembly can be moved inwards, and it's a pretty close affair to begin with. ________________________________________ Rich |

depends how much space there is under the wheels, you need to stick the calipers on without a disc and see how far away from the lugs they need to be, that'll five you the offset for the bell and the spacer needed for the caliper, but don't forget about clearance to the balljoint and steering arm on the hub.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Personally, I see no merits to owning them tbh,They buckle like cheese and are heavy and hilariously expensive. I not sure they totally capture the look of the cyclone either ________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |
