Brake Swap
on monday, we'll try to put the front brake system from an HRV-Vtec, to my EF9, with 15"" wheels.
we'll have to match the 5x114 pattern, of the disk, to the 4x100 of the hub.
we hope the brakes, fit in the wheel

Re: Brake Swap
Good luck, make sure you drill all holes seperate from the old ones to keep balance as good as possible. What is the disk size?

Re: Brake Swap
Post photos. Maybe the offset of the wheel can play a role if things are too tight there. CRV brakes are 5 hub?

Re: Brake Swap
first of all, the disk has the size of the rim . it can't be unoticed.
the brake distance is far more smaller but the kit can block the tires easily.
no ABS for me
