      measuring backspace without brakes

      I have a Wheel Works tool to measure back space for my rear wheels, but I don't have brakes yet. How much space do I need to include for the rotor hat? Will be using Baer 6P.

      Depending on who you're using for wheels, some if the manufacturers have the information needed. Especially with a Baer or Wilwood setup.
      Big dreams, small pockets....

      Call Baer and ask how thick the rotor hats are. My guess is about 1/4".

      Good guess. Baer said .300" for all their rotor hats.
