Number31 Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 From the 2003 Roadsports regs "The alternative front wingstays (Caterham part numbers 76101 and 76102)" These are designed to reduce the gap between the tyre and the wing as you describe. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelspeed Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 Even the race stays sit well clear of 185/60 or 7 inch ACB size tyres. I got a pair expecting really tight clearance and ended up cutting about an inch out of them and rewelding shorter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philwaters Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 I have the race stays, currently being fitted.. I have enough room to get 13" 185x60 032's off, but it is close.. looks cool 😬 Phil Waters You mean you can drive these? I thought it was just there to polish 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Walker Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 Looks like you have the wrong ones Fred. The correct VX/SLR race stays have thinned down/reduced section tube where the tyre wall is closest. You have airbrakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Posted February 18, 2003 Author Share Posted February 18, 2003 ROB these have the thinned down/reduced section tube could it be the wings i noticed they are 1/2 inch wider than the last ones. Edited by - fred on 18 Feb 2003 18:54:58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
