Hi Iain
The chances are you'd need some quite thick spacers to get them to fit behind the 14" alloys over standard disks. What model car have you got? As then I can look which diameter/thickness disks it uses.
Usually the caliper will sit around 50mm out from the face of the disk so that's the sort of clearance you'll need between the face of the disk and the back of the spokes of the wheel.
Also, none of the Wilwood calipers will bolt straight onto the Civic hub and need a set of brackets machining for them, this is something we can do, as well as make the spacers if needed.
 
Hey guys thanks for the fast reply. I'm intrestd in geting there. I have a year 2000 1.6 soic non vtec its a civic coupe sport. Could you pm me a price with the calipers and brackets that I would need please .ican upgrade my wheels if needs be thanks iain
 
From my database, I think your car uses 240mm front disks. If you're wanting to keep these disks we'd need one to work with to produce a kit. Where abouts are you based?
