Are there absolutely no others that will fit? It seems from their design (images below) that others could clear the wheels as well.



How does one determine whether one brand will fit and another not without test fitting first? There must be some way to compare measurement specifications of each. Otherwise, will the OEM Brembos fit?

there are alot of factors that determine what fits and what does not

I would recomend visiting the brake manufacturers sites, download and print the pdf files and you'll see exactly what will and wont fit

StopTech 4 pots stick out about 1.5" from the hub while Racing Brake 4 piston calipers are "only" about 1"

Go to StopTech's website print out a template. Take off your wheel and use the template to see if it clears. If not, go to Racing Brakes website, check their measurements and cut down the StopTech template to simulate the Racing Brake measurements.

You need to get a schematic of your rim with all its measurements and the same for the intended brake application--the schematic should be on the rim and brake's website

Stoptech along with other BBK co. usually offer clearance templates online to determine if your wheels will work with they're kits.
