302 rotors fit under 16" Perfos?

[rguzz]

I believe so. I suppose I could ask if a 302 upgrade is even worth it, though territory here is treacherous I know. Would be for 855 wagon, basically normal enough driving habits don't drive it hard. Thanks!

[rguzz]

Actually did a quick search through MVS and realized I've asked a similar question before and consensus seems to be the Perfos will fit. I'm doing front brakes anyway which makes the "upgrade" tempting and probably wouldn't do it otherwise. So, maybe worth it?

Hey why not? You wouldn't be asking if you didn't want to do it, so do it. You live once...

Yes, Perfos fit the 302's, and it's a worthwhile upgrade over the marginal stock 280's.

Do it.

The upgrade is worthwhile, and relatively easy. I would suggest replacing the flexi-brake lines. If I recall the 302's need a longer line over the 280's, but I may be wrong.

The 302s should be used with longer brake hoses, but they work perfectly fine with the stock hoses. Been running them for a few years now this way. If flexi brake lines were legal over here, I'd surely run them, though.

Columbas, even if they look similar to Perfos, are the 16 inch wheels that definitely don't fit unless you want to modify the rims or brake calipers in a scary way.

Columbos?

“ there’s just one more question, Sir....”

[rguzz]

I do want to do it, so...I'll do it. In there anyway. Rate limiting step would have been sourcing out another set of wheels. My Perfos are in excellent shape, so that makes it easy.

[Goupil]

Can confirm that Columbas do not fit

I got new hoses when I went 302, might as well replace the 23yo original ones
