@CGERM How's the brake clearance on those rotiforms? The method ds wouldn't fit over my stock brakes so now I'm leery of getting new wheels.

The Rotiforms are custom built so clearance isn't an issue. How old were the DS's that didn't clear? They used to have this issue years ago but they adjusted offset by 3mm and it seemed to fix the problem.

I know they custom build them but didn't know if they had multiple face heights. (And having done several sets of 3 piece wheels, brake clearance can still be a pain, though I've heard rotiform is better to deal with than most)

DS's were manufactured in 2016, weren't even close to clearing.. I went with NVs as a result.

Roti is definitely on top of there game. I've had them take on some pretty unique requests and never an issue. They do have a lot of different variations in pad height, forging profiles etc... Not the quickest turn around times but definitely some of the nicest products we've had come through our shop.

That's crazy about the DS. It has to be the GEN2 brake I'm guessing. I had some on my GEN1 for a short period of time without issue.
