Oh, I thought you putting the Rotora's on the stock wheels. I guess they won't fit. That sucks. I was about to give Dean a call but now I guess I won't. I can't justify buying new wheels just so I can have better brakes.

I am awaiting my spacers to be overnighted to me... They were suppose to be here today....... maybe they will be here tomorrow......

I test fit the stocks and to my surprise there is even less clearance than I thought... I if a 5mm (1/8 inch) spacer will be enough for the stock rims....

I will let you guys know when I get to the bottom of it.. as for now my car is still up in the air awaiting for some much needed parts.

Well don't read so far into my post... I am running the stock wheels in a month or 2... I did not think I would need spacers for my aftermarket rims so I went to install the brakes and found out the hard way.... no biggie... I will keep you guys posted to what spacer will be needed for the stock rim as soon as I get some spacers....
