Hello,
looking at getting some new wheels, RPF1's in 15x7, does anyone know if they will fit over the Wilwood brake kit?

6ul will always be better as they are designed specifically for our cars.
and by better i mean have more design considerations around race parts.

6UL in 15x7 wont fit either. as per 949racing website.
PF01 is only option.

Yes have 6ul's in 8's and they fit, 7 & 7.5 don't. Have just ordered some PF01for the track tyres.

nice. black or silver? any reason why you wanted 7 inch wide and not 8 inch wide, same as your 6ULs? only $40 difference.

I have ordered the PF01 in 8's, was thinking my 600kg car wouldn't need the extra width, but the tyre options are the same so I feel its better to have the tyre stretched then rolling on a bag. Black was my first option, but Silver was the faster option, ( they said black was a going to take months). The 6ul's I have are black and look good.
