Front Brake kit that fits 18" wheels

I tried the Brembo GT front brake upgrade kit. I have a California special. (18" x 8.5" wheels). Originally I thought that the kit will fit with spacers. However, the calipers did nit clear at all. Any idea about what kit can I go with knowing that I would like to keep the stock wheels. After 6 track days, the front brakes are almost gone and need to be replaced soon.

Thanks,

Hey There,

Shoot me an e-mail (PageN@Stillen.com) and I will e-mail you a fitment guide for the AP Racing 4 piston kit. Not sure which wheels you have, but our system notes show that the 4 piston kit fits with the fanblade wheels. MIGHT fit the Bullitt wheels with a spacer.

Here is a link to the brake fitment templates - for anyone that may want to check

AP4100 (6 piston front) - http://www.stillen.com/product_files/AP4100~profile.pdf

AP4400 (4 piston front) - http://www.stillen.com/product_files/AP4400~profile.pdf

AP4150 (4 piston rear) - http://www.stillen.com/product_files/AP4150~profile.pdf

Just make sure that when you print the template - that you select "NONE" for scaling options. There is a 1" x 1" reference square on the template you can use to check and make sure you printed it correctly.

Give me a call (866-278-8287 x134) if I can be of any help.

Thanks
