think you need to check the disk type of the wheel; that will determine if it clears bbk

Most likely you will need to run spacers to clear, but definitely contact the manufacturer for the disk type.

Yes. That is for BBK clearance. Low disk = max lip.

I believe they should. I've seen them clear over Supra TT brakes which are bigger thatn the rotoras.

The only sure way to answer this question is to check the brake template against the wheel.
