Can you fit a MINI donut over REAR Brembo JCW BBK (2008+)?

Any feedback?

 

thought only the front brakes were different

 

I am referring to this BBK:

I know front are out of the question, but what about the rear?


Anybody?

 

"2 - 12.4" cross drilled and slotted front brake rotors
2 rear brake rotors
2 coated red floating 4 piston brake calipers and carriers with the John Cooper Works logo
front Brake pads
rear pads
Hardware required for installation
Customer information with permitted wheel dimensions
Brake Wear sensors"

pic shows calipers but it only includes the fronts. Rear rotors and pads are included

 

Here is a composite of 2 type of rear brakes on rear (arrows point to critical size differences)...

 

Oops!!!

 

Actually, NO!

I tried my spare on WC50 R56 and the caliper is too large...

 

Really, I was told it would. I will check mine this week. How much contact is there? I know there is another spare that can be put together from the Chevy Cobolt spare wheel that might work.

 

I mounted the spare, but as soon as I started to tighten the bolts I can feel there was not enough space for wheel to turn... Bummer, because of this I gave up an idea of BIG BRAKES...

 

I bought a Cobalt rim on E-Bay,It did not clear the rear JCW rear caliper.I then tried a 5mm then a15mm spacer still no luck. Ordered a Mini spare rim it rubed the outside diam. of the caliper then with a 10mm spacer just clears. Alot of messing around to get a spare for the JCW Clubman.

 

So, I guess with 15mm you'll be "sailing"...

Good to know. I will wait with BBK until it's time to do the brakes...
