I just installed that kit on acuradriver2006's car friday night. No fitment issues whatso ever with the stock 17's. You should be able to run any aftermarket wheel made for the tl. Installation shouldnt take more than an hour.

i am slightly partial to StopTechs. if you would like more information i suggest you call or email Dave Zeckhausen. he is known to be very knowledgable when it comes to brakes. tell him Alvin sent you...

i did a lot of research. Dave also answered a lot of my questions. as far as technology, StopTech owns a lot of the patents when it comes to BBK technology. if you are getting a BBK, might as well get it for both form, function, and looks. i believe the StopTechs deliver in all aspects.

ROTORA offers a few BBK systems for the TL. The link you provided is a 1 pc 13" rotor with 4 piston caliper and that should be plenty of braking power for you. It's great setup and as Ryan commented it will fit your stock wheels (thanks for the heads up on that Ryan; I didn't know it would fit without a 5MM spacer).

If you need a ROTORA BBK let me know. I am a Vendor for Acurazine and a Master Distributor for ROTORA and can beat that price in the link.
