Well that oughtnt be a problem, 310mm is just over 12". Might need to be careful where balancing weights are attached though :lol:

QFT

if you find some enkie hotwires (there more mesh then hotwire) they have alot of space for big brakes,

my friend was selling the silvia brake kit for the starlet ages ago, and im sure you still need spaces cos the front of the caliper will hit the back of the rim face,

I measured my chevoit hotties tonight. Where the rim meets the wheel face it is about 300mm, but the back outer lip is about 320.
