[QUOTE="ayoustin, post: 1933994, member: 28480"] I really liked the Wilwood kit when I first saw it but am a bit bummed they didn't try to make it work around the stock rotor. The rotor they're using is smaller than stock. [TABLE] [TR] [TD][/TD] [TD]Stock[/TD] [TD]Wilwood[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Diameter[/TD] [TD]350mm[/TD] [TD]340mm[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Thickness[/TD] [TD]34mm[/TD] [TD]32mm[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Height[/TD] [TD]49.5mm[/TD] [TD]52mm[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] I'm guessing the thickness is the issue. The caliper is based off their Aero6 caliper which can only take up to a 32mm rotor. Seeing as they had to make new castings for the DM version it's kind of a shame they didn't try to open up the throat a bit more to fit a thicker rotor. Thickness looks to be the only thing keeping them from retaining the stock rotor. I'm sure the Wilwood rotors are nice but almost $600 for a replacement pair is a good amount more than some nice Centrics which are $150-200 per pair. [/QUOTE]
