StopTech BBK for FDs wheel fitment.

I know this is 3rd Gen specific, but I put it here as it makes the most sense to me. Mods, feel free to move it to the third gen section if you want.

Regarding this thread on the StopTech BBK that J Ritt is whipping up for us, there's a link to a template to measure clearance for your wheel. Judging by the interest I saw on previous threads, I'd like to suggest making this a sticky and ONLY post wheels that would allow this kit to be installed.

I've got Enkei RPM2s in a 17X8.5 setup up front. I'll measure when I get a chance.

Yea for me if you all like the idea.

this may or may not be a factor , but, the stop tech drawing shows the centre bore on the rotor hat for the FD to be 67mm It is in fact 72mm or 2.85 inches. be careful

I'm going to have my engineers recheck the drawing vs. their measurements...I'll have an answer asap. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause!

I talked to my engineers about the measurements a minute ago. The drawings are correct. The potential 'mistake' is not a mistake at all. The factory wheel register is the number shown...that is the standard on all of our fitment charts. The factory center bore is 72mm as 1Red said...and that's what the hat will be designed to fit. Thanks for the warning though!
