wopony12 Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 Has anyone installed rear disc brakes on a 1987 Avanti with factory wire wheels. If so, what kit was used. I am afraid the wheels won't fit on with calipers. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackardV8 Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 Just asking, why do you feel rear disc brakes are needed? jack vines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wopony12 Posted May 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 May not be needed. Just something I would like to add. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Kile Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Making an adapter to add them might not be too difficult. However getting the correct balance between front and rear could be tough. Charlie RQB3921 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyJimW Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I don't think that the wheels would matter, the clearance should be the same. I was looking at the kits on summitracing.com to install on my 87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boogieman Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Hey Jim. Looking at your photo album I see a hood pad inscribed "AVANTI". Where did you find that? Nice piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
