I think the black bracket will take care of any offset issues. In any case I've booked Mr. Mitsu power for some install assistance sometime in the next few days.

Nice stuff... got me thinking about some custom rim spacers now :D

watch out for bump steer with the spacers, better to get rims that have better clearance rather than alter the spacing. Nice looking stoppers btw Rado ;)

I'm certain the rotors are definitely a bit heavier but the calipers are about the same as the stock calipers.... surprisingly
