dirt jumper jake Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 so long as you have the right caliper adapter to suit the size brake disc you wont to put on it should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borat Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 You dad needs to f**king grow a pair! He seems to boss you around with everything! Anywho, yes, you can use different sized rotors, just renember the size on the back you have to get a +20mm adaptor than what you would have on the front. So if you had a 160mm rotor and used it on the front, but then you decide to use it on the rear, you would need to get a new rear adaptor+20 (180) AMIRITE?

DannyBazz (: Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Just run 160mm, 180 on the back of a mod is pointless. But if you really want to run 180,just buy a 180 brake and a 20mm adaptor. I think... Ring tarty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
