Talking BBK Came in the Mail.

They're Wilwood 4-piston front calipers, with 12.86" Wilwood slotted rotors.

Wilwood calipers/pistons/ss brake lines/Wilwood pads came last Tues; Wilwood slotted rotors came Wed or Thurs... they'll go on as soon as my 5mm spacers come in for the front rims.

wilwoods are a bit smaller looking then other calipers, but still gets the job done...

if you want some massive calipers that look like they're eating your rotor just stick with stock rotors and buy an endless caliper cover.

tried to put 'em on today, but I need a 13mm spacer with extended bolts. Did 3 day air, so they should be here hopefully Wed, and I'll have them on Wed.

Phil -- they look big as a mofo and good, too! mmm mm

Thanks LIPPSTUH!
So if I have the OEM 17 inch rims on a 2003 CL-S 6 speed, and I get a set of 15mm spacers, I will be able to use the Wilwood BBK? Sorry if this is a stupid question, I would just like to get a BBK setup without have to go to 18" rims.
