4pot brakes on 4lug s4 base
Ok so my RX7 was sitting for about 8 years before I got it, and the front brakes were seized. I went to Napa and they didnt even carry new or refurbished calipers for my car. So I went to autozone and they only carry the 4pot brakes, and they say it will fit my rx7. I check the website and it says they will fit as well (autozone). However, I know this cant be true. How could they make such a huge mistake? Unless im wrong.
My questions: Will they fit and work with the old rotors? Do I really need to do the rotor spacer+redrilled 5 lug rotors? If i did all this, would they clear my 14inch stock phone dial rims with no spacer?
Thanks, pic for the hell of it

Not a problem.You can get 4 lug brakes there rather than have to drill rotors out and fit in the 4 pots.
I assume that would be easier as you intend to run the phone dial rims(14's) and the upgrade is in my opinion not really worth it if you don't have SEXY 17 inch 5 lug wheels..lol!.
