    Havent bought the wheels yet, I want to make sure they fit before.

    Ill email compomotive to see if they can give me details on the rims. Now I know 38mm is needed, makes things easyer.

    Thanks!

    I'd be interested in this too and also a list of 15" wheels that fit these brakes...

    I'm sure others will confirm, but I'm sure 7x15 ET25 Compomotive MOs go over these.

    So the main problem is going to be the ET to clear de spokes(dimension A on Diagram 2)? Seems that A must be at least 38mm.

    The inner of the rim clears ok on 15"?

    From compo website:

    Acording to Compo, the TH mono 8x15" with ET25 gives 45mm of caliper space. So It looks OK in theory.
