I have been looking around trying to find something to fit under my 16" race wheels and couldn't ever find anything to clear. Finally I decided to do it myself. I had some wilwood calipers lying around from my buddies Subaru race car and just had to find rotors. I was originally going to use 13" cobra rotors but decided that wasn't going to fit without 17" wheels. I thought about 3000GT VR-4 rotors but decided they were to expensive and hard to come by. I ended up with crown victoria rotors. They are 12" in diameter and 1.10" thick. I just have to find longer wheel studs and spacers so my street wheels will fit. Does anyone know what longer arp studs will fit?

True - but mine are way cheaper - and rated to the same tensile strength.
 

F that sh*t. For that price, I'd rather get a set of Moroso's or ARP 1/2 20's with a similar knurl dia. They only run 20 bux for a set of 5.

Finally got this all installed.



The H&R wheel spacers came with wheel studs so thats what I used. I'm happy with the way it came out. I just wanted to be able to dissipate more heat. This was fairly economical for me. Will find out how well it works if I can get everything else finished before the 15th. It stops really well with hawk dtc70 pads. I think they are going to be too much though. The balance feels really good without the abs. I always thought there was too much rear brake before. This seems much better from what I could tell from my 15min. test drive.
