Default nice brakes

but do you need them. As in are you just buying them for bling factor or are you actually going to put them to use at the track?

Default switched the link...

i don't want those other ones. Not for bling factor... my rotors/pads are gone after the julian drive on the weekend... car handled great but braking was something to be desired. It was tight s turns all the way up a mountain... i was keeping on the tail of a 90 Quattro Coupe... but had issues with brake fade. I'm hoping these will help. AND i will put them to use...

Default I've got that setup

with the correct pad selection they might be all the brake you ever need depending on how much HP you end up making and what quality of tire you use.

Default from the looks of it (in your pic poster)

you are running a 17 inch wheel... looks like plenty of clearance... so i should be fine. Hopefully will have them on thursday and installed too

Default they clear the inside of the rim nicely.... inner face of the spokes just barely.

you have to be aware that the boxster calipers are wider than the stock calipers. Not every wheel will clear them. My MIM romas just barely eeek by.

Should fit.
Print out the template and check.
I have all the hard parts to obtain in stock. The easy parts just take a day to get once ordered.

Default They don't limit your wheel selection as bad as they do mine

Thankfully 17" TT 5 spokes fit just fine, with plenty of clearance on mine.

Default Nah, your wheels are useless. Send them to me and I'll dispose of them no charge to you.

:-p
