        I think you should just buy mine. Just run a 15mm spacer to bring the fronts out flush

          I am noob at BBK (plus I am new to BBK) I am going to be installing my BBK and will need new rims and tires. I was hoping that 15 x 8 +25 would be able to fit 280mm kit. Here is a link to the rim I was looking at.

            Anybody have success fitting these behind real 16" alpinas?

            Here is an Idea lets get a printable template going to check wheel clearances.

            Also what is the typical cost for machining the rotors 1mm to fit the hub?

              How far do the calipers stick out from the hub? Someone stick a tape measure on it and take a picture.

                      I ordered the caliper brackets from these guys:


                      and this might be a dumb question, but the other day I was trying to do a test fit to see if these things will clear my 15x7 et24 Euroweaves, and I couldn't get the caliper + bracket onto the spindle because the dust shield behind the rotor is in the way. Does this need to be cut down or removed for this to work??
                      Make the bastard chase you.

                        Yes you have to trim your dust shield.

                            What was the original e30 f/r brake bias before rx7 calipers?

                            Have the setup just wondering what will happen when we go on track with it

                              Original is 60/40. The bias is not ideal but is not terrible. I can lock up the fronts first.
