XSCHOP, just wondering if these are likely to clear 17s (like the twists, cup 1s or cups 2s) or do you think 18s will be required?

If you're talkin about the wilwoods, they'll clear 17's as long as there is at least 57mm space between inside wheel spokes and the Cayenne rotor sweep

Mark,

Did you ever get the 330mm rotors and stock caliper mounted? If so how do the work in compairison to the stock braking system? Any photos of the completed project ans the adaptors?

Sophea... She is awesome! 41 or 42 and has a 21 year old! UNREAL! Some people get ALL the good genes! I wish she was mine to trade, but I think I would keep her! She will be in next years calendar, I didn't have my first shoot with her till this years calendar was already off to the printer...DANG IT!

Now, stop looking at my avatar and get back to working on the brakes Mark! LOL!

The car is mine, thanks for the compliment! I'll put in a good word for you with Sophea...she is single! That is EURO85, you can follow that thread here under the $3600 LACL title. I'll pull it back up to the top later today when I post the shot of the odo at 102,000.

Mark,

Any updates? Not that EURO85 is lacking for brakes, but they would sure look cool behind the 18" wheels!
