I know the 15" will for sure, but will the 14" from a DL fit over the stock 92 "small" brakes?

My '93 DL came with 14" steelies and has the exact same size brakes as my '93 TSi, who's brakes are bigger(?) than '92. So I think that means the answer is "yes". wink

thanks Rob, the 93+ came with bigger dual piston calipers and maybe bigger rotors too?? Maybe the 14s wouldn't fit on them.

Hmm.. both my '93s have single piston I think, at least in the rear. That is, if single piston is one large piston in the middle and dual piston are two pistons - one on each end, then both my '93s definitly have single piston. Regardless, the '93 DL 14" steelies fit fin, so I don't see you having any problems with your supposidly smaller brakes.

only 93+ AWD has big brakes....your FWS has the same brake setup as the rest of the pre 93 big brakes

I had 14" stel rims on my 91 AWD for the winter so if you have the "small" breaks on your 92 they will fit.

Definitely! I have been looking into this myself for winter rims. 90 Laser 14x5.5" fit. For sure! $41.99 at crappy tire this week

thanks guys, got it sorted out. No fitment problems. 195/70/14 tires for those who wanna know.. which btw, are about half the price of 205/55/16s - so it's a pretty cheap solution for winter tires.. Gotta love the sidewall though. wink

Make sure that the brake line to your rear caliper had this 90 deg. fitting .

The reason is that those 14" will be really close to the line that goes out straight out of your rear caliper . I know that someone had that problem , and they did not noticed it , untill they lost the brakes from the line being worn off by the rim. He was lucky that he stoped at a trafick light , and felt the pedal drop to the floor

If anyone wants to know what car to get 15" off .

Concord or Intrepid has the same bolt patern , but the center hole ( for the hub ) is biger.

I will try my bros Concord rims on my talon as soon my EBC rotors come-in and install them .

93 AWD have 11" rotors ( they are not really 11" , close but not 11" )
90 DSM have 10" front , and something like 10.5" rear . just like all DSMs with rotors in the rear .

I know becouse of a lot junk yard trips , to the yards that they let you walk around.
