Abstract
A caliper is fastened by a fastening arrangement on a projecting rib of a wheel carrier. The rib has a manufacturing thickness which, for the optional fastening of a floating or fixed caliper, can be reduced on each side by an amount of thickness such that a basic thickness of the rib remains. The fixed caliper can be fastened on the exterior side and the floating caliper can be fastened on the interior side of the rib at a defined distance from the brake disk by way of screwing devices.
