Jake Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 1 inch = 25.4mm 25.4mm / 16 = 1.5875mm 1.5875mm * 11 = 17.4625mm So an 11/16th socket will fit 17mm bolt but is a little too big. I wouldn't recommend it on something as highly torqued up as a caliper bolt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just gonna kill my bro to make me feel better for now 11/16" is fine to use on caliper bolts. try it and see how it feels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
