Rotora BBK for 4G TL?

Found this video on Youtube:


Does Rotora actually make a BBK for the 4G? Can't seem to find anything on the internet to suggest that it does.

For those of you who are interested in BBKs we have been working with STOPTECH on a front and rear kit for over a year now. We should have something released soon. And it will be less expensive than the ROTORA kits, and likely perform better based on what we've seen in the past.

I love my Rotora brakes. However, I ended up stranded on the side of the freeway the other day when I discovered the hard way that the spare tire won't fit with these brakes installed.
Can anyone recommend a good quality wheel spacer I can try?
Thanks

I would not advise any sort of spacer with a spare tire, esp if you are on the side of the highway. Spacers are soft aluminum and you can easily cause trouble trying to get the spacer on and tight, then the spare on too while clearing the BBK.

Easy solution, get a 5x120 compact spare from another car with enough offset to clear the rotoras. I think the MDX Type-S should an option since it has larger brembos from the factory and should come with a rim that can work/fit over your rotoras.

This is actually a good idea. Turns out my neighbor across the street has an MDX SH-AWD and borrowed his spare this morning. However, it is 3/4" deeper than my spare so this won't work (the ID is the same). What I need is either a spare tire whose wheel is less deep than my spare, or a spacer, so my original question remains.
