Still depends on the actual wheel, some will fit fine, others will hit with a BBK.

stoptech have a paper cutout you print out that you use to check if the calipers fit the wheel, very easy to use

You'll fit a 13" BBK and a more then likely a 14" kit as well. The only hangup you'd have is the offset.

Todd does a great job outlining what one should do to see if a kit would fit XX wheel. Measure out from the center of the wheel to the radius of the specific rotor (13" rotor > measure out to 6.5") and take measurements along the way.

Then call up different manufacturers and get their specifications.

Our Specifications

Compare Todd's "X" with our "A" measurement.

Hope this helps for any other kit you may be interested in as well.
