Make sure they are developed for the ccm rotors or else you won't achieve the benefits of the disk and will destroy it at the same time.

I am thinking that you must first have the set of wheels in your hands to start the work with the hats. Maybe you will face offset problem doing firstly the hats.Be careful not to do this work twice...

Be the way i just came back form the 3rd ROtary Stock in Greece when i took the first place

yes I understand what you mean by offset for the wheels. I think it wont be a problem if I do my calculation correctly. right now the rx7 hat im using its a stock hat spec and +9mm thickness from the Ferrari hat,if not I would just stick in a wheel spacer or just get another hat made.

btw congrats on first!!

Thanks for the wishes.

Take into consideration than stock hat thicknes is 6mm , consider also that the thickness of the disk itself is wider. Stock FD is only 20mm and you are having at least 28mm disk for Ferrari disks,Thus + 4mm if you divide it by 2. The caliper width is far far wider than OEM so do the calculation all together for best outcome. Or you can, as u said, add a spacer and solve all this matters

Guess if your supplier is prepared to undervalue the goods he has sent you you may pay less tax ... every transaction has a positive and a potential negative lol

Dont do the crime if your not prepared to pay the time

Nice brakes!

the brembo 6 pot fronts look alot like the ones found on audi Q7 V8, and Cayenne and Touareg with the 18" package brakes. I am also running these on my Exeo/A4, stop awesome and weigh alot less than stock iron caliper. I am using them with the B7 RS4 discs, originally 360*32, but had to turn them down do 354mm because the caliper was sitting to far inwards (mounts on stock location)
