Well I'm not all that sure the brakes will fit that easily in the mini wheels, the pads looks like they will fit but I worry about the brake caliper which needs to be buried in that tiny space in the wheel (to reach the disc that will be almost where the wheel spokes are). It will all depends on the shape of the caliper. I might end up grinding whatever does not fit and JB weld it to one of the aluminum pieces of the strut.

I will probably still need to remove some of the knuckle aluminium anyway, depending on the shape of the caliper. As long as I keep enough space to place the two "sandwitch" screws on this side of the strut I should be good!
