Mr Woolery,

I really hope you can test it. Been wanting to order goodwin bbk but i'm having doubts on the fitment with the work equips..

Brian,

Thanks.. I think the goodwin and FM BBK are just the same.

you'll probably need to test fit the specific wheels you have to make sure. Work has a couple different center disks they offer in most of thier wheels. They each have different clearances. I had this issue when I was trying to see if Meister S1's would fit the same brakes. some of them would, some wouldn't

Matt,

Thanks for the advice. I know work has 3 different type of disks. The A disk is like the normal disk and fits most front (bigger) calipers while the O disk has a mounting surface that has lesser clearance, just enough to accomodate smaller rear calipers while providing a wider lip. Lastly the R disk which are for the 4 pot (or more) calipers.

My front wheels are 15x7 et+25 A disk. Although i know this already, i still don't know if it will clear the willwood calipers.

thanks for the reply. Are you using wilwwods with your Equip 01? I tried the cut out of flyin miata for their big brake kit but couldn't really be sure if there won't be any rubbing w/ the calipers.
