    I'm actually anxious to try this set up. I have had several customers ask about such a kit. Will there be anymore runs of this buy in the future?

    It's not too late, obviously, but the special ends at the end of November.

    Also, while most BMW discs have 7 to 7.5mm thickness in the hat where they mount on the hub, I double checked th VW rotors I had (Asian-made for testing) and found them to be at 5.5mm, which is 1.5mm to 2mm thinner than stock. Meaning that with "normal" brand name discs, the gap between the caliper and the backside of the wheel will be increased by 1.5 to 2mm.

    Brake bias is indeed addressed and will not affect the car's balance. Calipers have 1.38" pistons. These will only be offered with black anodizing.

    Thanks for the info... I'll def picked up a pair of these in the next month or so. The only reason i wasnt goin BBK is b/c i didnt want to run huge spacers with my wheels... but i think i can live with 3mm. Haha... and looks like i'm painting these puppies.

    BBS RM012 = FIT!!

    *Actually its a very very close fit. From what i can tell with the template up against the wheel, there is about 1-2mm of space between the spokes and the caliper.

    I know this is touched on a bit... but can you confirm that the brake bias will be addressed with this kit?

    I'm def buying a set of these, just wish you would have the initial offer extended through Dec. But oh well i'll just pick them up at $660. Any chance of getting these in red? Hahah.. it will save me from painting them, which will be exactly what i'm going to do.

    Yes.

    It is a very good assumption.

    On the front Sport and Race kits with 300mm rotors, the bias was great for street people on softer suspension. A few racers with stiffer suspension elected to remove the fixed pressure limiter to add some rear pressure under hard braking. The smaller rotors of the Street kit will be just perfect with the same size pistons as the front-only Sport and Race kits.

    Whoever has tested the profile, and can confirm the Street kit clears their wheels, then maybe the info could be shared for everyone's benefit.

    TIA

    +1

    Just printed out the diagram to check for wheel clearance. Although I'm assuming the convex spokes of the Works to not have a problem.
