    Brake and wheel combination?

    What wheels will work with 13" disc brakes?  I used MS bracket to put 2013 GT disc brakes on the front of my 66. I know my wheels have to be 17" but I am also learning a pedal clearance lesson.  What wheels are guys using with this set up?  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Re: Brake and wheel combination?

    There was a recent post that said the BOSS 338 wheels do not clear, and I know the American Racing TTII wheels have issues.  Hopefully others can post their experience with a particular wheel.  If enough reply, I will start a database to help future installers of those brakes.

    What pedal clearance issues?

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

    I have 13" front discs on my '66 with 17" Billet Specialties Mag wheels. SN95 Cobra calipers and spindles.The spokes just clear the caliper face. TTII's definitely would have not cleared.
