Was just wondering if anyone had this exact setup or experience with Superleggras with the Baer kit. Is there going to be a need for a spacer if I do this?

Which kit? 12" or 13"? Both will work BTW.

OK, just had to make sure. Didn't want to get it and then it won't fit.

I guess I coulda just put a wheel of mine on your car Todd to compare.

I had the 12" kit w/ 18s and plenty of clearance. I would say go with the 12" - 13" is overkill IMHO as my 12" had plenty of bite with my 3L.

Sorry to go off topic but I've never looked closely at those calipers until now.. They are cobra bullitt calipers :-O

Look even the notches in the castings match:


Here's a pic from Baer's catalog:



Here's a larger zoom..

Thanks Capt. Obvious. Almost all kits basically use that caliper. It's the 2 piston PBR. How do you think we order pads?
