Default Grrrrr!! Bob.. still have those 30mm spacers?!!

All the brakes are back on, Brembos up front, new rotors rear, race blue in the system. Trouble is, 15mm spacer up front wasnt enough, 20mm spacer up front wasnt enough... had to use my 25mm spacer and put the 15 on the rear...

Sooo until I can afford new wheels, 30mm on the rear anyone?! Oh well, brakes work great!

PS No pictures until next week after a trip to the body shop. Going spoilerless and compensating with the lower diffuser!

Default Do I have to say?! :( Sad Sad Sad

They are HP EVOS 18x8 ET35 i think, the brakes are Brembo Gran Turismos.

Wheels HAVE to go anyways, they came on the car, I dont like them.

Default Damn, either those are huge calipers or the spoke design just sucks for brakes

ET32 on my BBS and only needed a 2mm spacer to clear the stoptechs, 25mm is insane.

Default when I sold my RH rims the spacer/adaptors were part of the package... I do have two..

25 mm spacers/adaptors laying arouund but no way they do you much good. (unless you need to convert a 5x100 hub to a porsche fitment wheel.)
