(way up)

What kind of wheels do you have again? Were you concerned about clearance issues, or did you know the wheels would clear the brake kit?

I guess you were still posting when I replied.... I now see that you have HRE's. Still, were you concerned about clearance issues?

Well I was concerned but I'd done a lot of homework so I wasn't THAT concerned. I knew I have high disc +38 19" rims, and I'd used the StopTech paper template on the rim to check they would fit, and finally, Bob (SoCalSC4) from HRE who has posted on here once in a while was able to look up the specs on my rims from the serial number and confirmed I could put any brakes in there.

I'd like to thank several people for help with my upgrade:

- TTurboPimp for leading the way with StopTechs in 540 HREs and giving me positive feedback.
- Neo for coordinating the great deal through ProLexPerformance
- Mike at ProLexPerformance for being a PRO! He kept in touch and they were delivered exactly when he promised, and he upgraded the shipping method to make sure even
- VVT-i for installing them today!
- DaveGS4 for letting me drive his car with the Supra brake upgrade (very nice)
- Anyone else I've missed...
