what wilwood calipers and rotors?

I purchased a wilwood kit from Spohn and didnt pay attention to the little *** 10" rotors

So i am trying to use the entire kit but make a custom bracket for a new caliper and run 13" rotors... I am thinking the super lite calipers and appropriate rotor.

I am not sure if I will be able to get the new rotor to mount to the hub that came with the kit though. I might need an adapter plate? ANy ideas?

Thanks again.

Spohn has a no-return policy?

Re: what wilwood calipers and rotors?

if you plan on using a new rotor and caliper, what part of the kit are you using?

Re: what wilwood calipers and rotors?

yea basically the hub and screws/bolts, etc... there is a lot of stuff there other than just the caliper and rotor from what i remember. I will chekc with spohn...im sure there is gonna be a restocking fee? i ordered this stuff months ago and then when i got it everything sat around for another month or two because i was too busy at work and was not home for weeks at a time and i just lost track of everything.

Word of advice - never start a huge project unless you know ur schedule is clear for a while, i had parts coming in left and right and didnt get to check most of them but luckily everything is good except these brakes that i should have payed more attention to.
