is there anyway to fit 266mm brakes under a 14inch vtr wheel without putting silly spacers on all round?
just not feeling the love for having to get other wheels and wrap them in nealy 500 quid of black rubber...

hmmm could be not too sure mate if they dont fit you could always pick a set of raptors up cheap and get the rubber swapped :)

my 266's fit fine and dandy under my VTR 14's like, no issues at all.

I ran Bosch 266's with VTR wheels for a short time, whilst my other wheels were being refubed.
Very close, but worked.

very close as in like 1-2mm??
by the sounds of it ill have to put brake cooling to them to stop them heating up the rim as they sound like they would be very close and very little room for the heat to escape but entirely possible :)
