Assembled left side today... also added pic of the very light scuff job Andrew did on the caliper to assemble into the bracket - barely any taken off.
What size spacer would be required to mount 15x9 6uls? 10mm?

Have we got any further installed photos? We tried to get these to work in NZ for years. Sadly the current exchange rate makes buying this kit from the US very costly, otherwise I would bite the bullet.

Savington,
Does the rotor stay aligned over the bearings? I ask because you mentioned that caliber position is very inboard.
Is this a good summary of fitment?
So they fit:
- 15x 10 6UL
- With 5mm spacer 15 x 9 Advanti Storm
- With 5mm spacer 15 x 9 Konig Dial-In
They do not fit:
- 15 x 8 from anyone
- 15 x 9 Jongbloed
- 15 x 9 6UL ( requires spacer to be confirmed)
Thx.

The rotor placement is within ~.050" of center on the bearings. Far closer to centered than Mazda's own brake rotors.
Correct. They won't clear a 15x9 6UL, even with a 5mm spacer. You need 15x10s or one of those two 15x9s. For those of you looking with street/track dual-purpose cars on 10s, most/all 16x8s will also clear the Superlite.

Probably a long shot but... Rota K7? Any way I could check?
My 11.75" dynapro TSE kit just barely clears the wheel weights...which happen to be in the worst place possible!
Is it more of a depth issue or a diameter issue?

I have good brakes. I don't need these brakes. But the increase in pad thickness is super appealing. And I like nice things.
With the amount of work I will be doing this winter, the car will be in the garage (that's GARE-ahj, you continental US cretins) for quite a while, so I'll have time to test fit mine if I want to. And as I now have 8 of them, I can convert them into something else if I need to. But I like to know things in advance.
