Message	I recently purchased a StopTech FR:332/RR:328 (BABK) from Santa Coz and am in the process of getting them installed. As I suspected I've run into a clearance issue with my 19", 35 offset, M-Sports on both the front and rear. So, for those of us who are 17",18" or 19" M-Sport (35 offset) wheel owners, I can confirm that StopTech's FR:355/RR:328 (BABK) will not fit without wheel spacers. Front: No Clearance - will require 15mm or greater wheel spacer Rear: .035 Clearance - will require 5mm-15mm or greater wheel spacer I currently do not have pics of the install but I have included some other pics and resources, below: Earlier Post - StopTech FR:332/RR:328 (BABK) StopTech 328mm Rear BABK with Drilled Rotors: StopTech 355mm Front BABK with Drilled Rotors*: *Link and pic are to 332mm kit with slotted rotors.
