Default Accord Calipers fitment with TR Motorsports +62

Hello, I have the 17x9 TR motorsports +62 C3's and I was wonderig if the 2006 Accord Manual Trans Caliper would fit.

Has anyone else fit other bbk's on these wheels?

Thanks

The TRM C3 is not BBK friendly. May I ask whats the need for larger calipers? Most guys here just run upgraded pads, lines and rotors.

Right now I have xp10 front, xr3 rears, stock rotors, no dust shield, stoptech brake lines, and 2.5" ducting to the front. I also run on rs3's or re-11's. The brakes are ok for now, but I was wondering if there were any upgrades past this point or do I have to sell my wheels. I am also on stockish hp too, so I was just thinking about the near future.

honestly i would stick with the set up you have now. you will either have to run a spacer or get new wheels to fit any BBK. even the dynalites ( which fit under the tsw )

i have those calipers.
Volk RE30 17x9 +63 where few mm short to clear.
Enkei PF01SS 17x9 +60 clear them with a few mm spare.

this is very good braking setup and in a worst case you'll need 3-5mm spacer.

Are you talking about autocross, or track duty?
Most hard-core track guys have upgraded calipers and rotors. The front rotors and calipers are undersized for track use, hence the cracking front rotors and short pad life on track.

For my purposes, its AX. To the OP , either sell the wheels or run a spacer i guess. I guess he is a very avid goer of track so i guess maybe he should upgrade too then? But he said currently his set up is fine now. He never said he was experiencing brake fade or anything. and again im totally biased to AX needs and from the information ive seen here.

I tried the TR C3 with my 3R Wilwood dynalite kit and they needed just over 5mm to clear. If i remember correctly, Marc P used the same calipers with PF01SS and needed 7-8mm spacer. I'm not sure the profile of the accord caliper, but it's single piston, right? The hard part about the C3s is they don't have much clearance in close to the hub than other wheels that the spokes bow out. I'd give it a try and have some spacers ready if they don't fit. I use a 3mm spacer with my 17x9s +63 with rolled fenders but no pull.
