Message to do the same upgrade when I mount my new 18's. This weekend I test fit one of my Work VSXXs and found that the back of the spokes just barely rubs the raised lettering on the calipers. For now, I ordered a 5mm spacer so that I can get them on with the stock set up.

I was hoping you could tell me if the 350Z track rotors (with the adapters installed) rotate on the same plane as the stockers or do they move in or out. The spokes on my wheels actually taper inboard as the diameter increases so 5mm isn't going to cut it if I move it out to 12.75". The fronts are 18x9 +38 (+33 with the spacers) so I don't think spacing them out any farther is going to be desirable. They look to be about where I want them with the spacers.

Just trying to figure out what will work before I order any parts. I may just be sticking with the stock rotors for a while and go to a BBK in the future.

Hey, wanna sell those wore out slotted stockers? :)


Years ago, I asked an old guy that was a Porsche guru if you could put a 914 motor in a bug. I have applied his response to many situations since then......"Son, you could put a winshield wiper on a billy goats ass, but I don't know why you would want to".
