My BBK Sneak Peak

according to rotoras documents

Needs 9" of clearance from the center of the brake disc. That means the wheel needs a minimum of 18" of clearance for EXACT fit. 18.5" would probably be the lowest you would want to go.
Will a 19" wheel be capable of that?

This kit is all bling and won't do anything to help stopping and in fact will hurt stopping power due to additional rotational mass. Also it will hurt the handling of the car due to the additional unsprung weight of the rotors and calipers and the fact that you will have to have larger, heavier wheels. If you want to stop faster read this

Definitely not a race car driver. I built this car from the ground up. 500+ hp daily driver but just wanted to balance it out So I can definitely agree with Graffkid as well as Flo-rida

Problem with such a large setup is that you pushed the weight to the outside, where it hurts you more. 20lb 20" wheels are worse than 20lb 17" wheels.
What wheels will you be running?

So since I've sold my G35 and decided to play around with the Z platform I've started getting my parts ready for this coming season. Thanks to a good friend of mine here on the boards I've got a very aggressive set of wheels and I just picked up my custom Rotora BBK which is an 8 piston front with a 405mm rotor and 6 piston rear with a 380mm rotor
I can't wait until spring!
