[QUOTE="molasses917, post: 35829, member: 21937"] Hi AllNeed some advise, I'm considering upgrading to the M Performance Brake Kit (wether or not they're worth it is a different question, I just like the larger rotor and colored calipers :), i'm currently running Stance SC6 19" wheels, which in theory should have more than sufficient clearance, but I just realized the design has the valve located inside the barrel instead of outside and am concerned about the valve tips hitting the calipers. I currently have the standard brake kitI measured current clearance is about 15-20mm (had to get a good measure with a simple ruler) between valve tip and clearance (see attached image), the fronts seem to have a bit more clearance, which I found a bit odd since I thought the rotors were bigger, unless I messed up the measurements. [ATTACH=CONFIG]32287[/ATTACH]If im not mistaken the difference (per side) would be:Front: 330mm to 370mm : 20mmRear: 300mm to 345mm : 22.5mmWhich means I'd have a problem of valves hitting calipers. Any thoughts on the matter is appreciated, am I calculating this correctly? [/QUOTE]
