What wheels do I need to clear the Rotoras? Will they work with stock 17s or A spec 18s?

Just wondering if the Rotoras have the emergency brake built in for the rear.

Well its larger rotors (for the front) and drilled rotors for the back. Pads all around, and larger calipers for the front as well. Not sure if Rotora includes stainless steel brake lines.

No wonder. imo i think the stock braking system is excellent, any better i'll fly out the windshield lol. I wouldn't spend that much for an upgrade but is there cross drilled rotors that are same size as stock? and can you use the stock caliper?

all I said was to read before you order, so if you dont want to listen to me about researching the products you put on your car because of my rep points thats fine with me.

Those look nice. I want to try the sway bar first before the springs because I like the way the car rides now. Let us know what you think of your set up once you get it installed.

yes we do. if you have 6MT, then it is thicker than that of the 5AT. the comptechs are slightly thicker than the stock ones that come with the 6MT.

this is an upgrade for 5AT only... the rotors are bigger and bigger/better calipers as well. when I say this, its upgrading the front. The only change to the back is changing the rotors to drilled rotors, while maintaining OEM size and replacing the pads as well.

To my understanding, this BBK will not work on the 6MT TL, nor is it worth it as you already have a first class Brembo brake system
