Default My 951 Caliper Adapters & Center Rings for Front 996TT Calipers & Front 996TT Rotors

9Products came through after the dude on the forum took my money and didn't deliver jack. I should have gone ahead and ordered these from the get go, exchange rate wasn't that bad. I selected three day UPS express saver and my package was delivered to me in about 1 week.

9Products is a company which belongs to my friend Antti. I have used his parts for years. High quality stuff.

Amazing and well thought out quality parts. And even better when you send them money they send you the parts you paid for! (Unlike the guy on here doing brake caliper brackets)

Larger centerbore on the rotors IIRC.

The centering rings are to properly locate the 996TT rotors onto the smaller 951 hubs.

I did not get my money back, in fact I didn't get anything other than a complete repudiation of fault.

He did ship a package to my home address, which was not the address I asked him to ship to (it was listed as the default PayPal address), buy I did not receive anything. Once I tried to contact him for a resolution he basically blamed me and told me to file a dispute. Pretty much the opposite of what a sensible person would do if they actually cared to see the transaction through. If you search my threads on here pertaining to 996tt brake caliper brackets it becomes pretty obvious who. I redacted my measurements and info I shared in the thread as I felt it was my time and energy that contributed to nothing in the end.

I run the 996tt rotors without centering rings with no problem. I have been running 996tt calipers and rotors for 6 years and never had any problems. The rotors fit over your studs which center them.

They're probably Porsche rotors which are very high quality. Aftermarket stuff is not nearly so precise, so the centering rings will ensure the rotors are centered to the hub. Wheels have the same issue; they should locate on something other than the lugs.

I figured it was better to order the centering rings than not, they were not expensive and seem like a guaranteed way to ensure the rotors are perfectly centered.

I run after market rotors, no problems. Wheels for these cars are hub centric, not stud centric like most American cars.
