[T3] New to it all!



Brian, there is a wide five (5x205mm) disc brake kit from Rocky Mountain Motorworks that will fit a '68 and later Ghia that,correct me if I am wrong guys and all of you dark siders, I think will also fit a Type 3. Unfortunately it is quite pricey at $995.00 but you could buy the kit with the CB Performance drop spindles, sell them to some B#g owner and defray a little of the cost. The 5 lug pattern on your drums/discs is probably a Porsche pattern that will fit the 5 lug Fuchs alloys which also have quite a bit of backspacing so they might fit and not rub. The only way to find out is to make sure that the pattern really is the Porsche pattern and then see if there is room when you fit it up. 5 lug Porsche wheels are pricey in and of themselves so either way you will be paying out some bucks. Good luck
