Are those dba rotors? The yellow hats make me think they are but the slot/cross drill pattern doesn't look like a dba pattern.

i too would like to know what about your setup makes you unhappy. you saved a lot of money by putting it together yourself. if anything you can always sell me your custom brackets.

They do look like dba's. I was going to import a set, but the hats are like 3mm too tall and I was afraid that it wouldn't work.

thanks, im not happy with how rotors are sitting on the rotors. The contact area is only on the outside edge not the whole area of the rotors. Also there is problems with rotors hitting the inner side to the lower arm bolts. Will have to get it fixed soon. btw the rotors are wilwood 355mm with custom rotor hubs. the original rotor hubs that came with the kit had clearance issues to the wheels but these new hubs made the rotors sit too much inside so when the suspension bounds up the rotors hit the lower arm.
thanks for possitive comments

my car will be detailed soon after the problems are solved.

something will be coming to make the car lower hehehehehe...hopefully in one month.

All of the dimensions are exactly the same except for the hat height. Again, it is just slightly taller than our stock size.

now, the thing that causes the problems is the dish of the front wheels.
my mechanic said that if i had rims with no dish at all it would be more than 100% to fit this BBK with no problems at all.
i took my car in today but they are a lil bit busy today so they just raised the car up a lil bit and the noise is a lot less. on friday my car will have some custom works on the lower arms. they will change the type of nuts there and hopefully there will be no noise at all.
