Is the dynalite going to clear with 15x8 Koenig Wide Open?

I don't think anyone has tried the 11.5" on a Wide Open. The 11" should fit easily.

Just wanted to double check something. You do need different brake lines, right? Assuming TSE is the best deal?
Also not sure if I missed any discussion, but what about dynapros? Right now what I'm assuming are the same size are about 25 bucks more, for each caliper.

There have been some that tried the Dynapro's. Check with AidanDJ , he used Dynapro's if I remember correctly. They need a little more wheel clearance, but work with the same mounting brackets. You need new lines from the factory hard line to the caliper. I have not looked at what TSE has to offer, but we have used the wilwood AN line with adapters and the 949 lines with great success.

So I found some 11.5" turbo mini rotors on sale for 8$ a pop on rock auto.....ends up they are drilled and slotted



Quick fit up shows there is a TON of room to the spokes and barrel of a 9" 6UL



Interestingly, the Mini rotor is .865" wide where the stock miata rotor is .787". Initial measurements show the centerline of the rotor is dead nuts the same as the miata rotor which actually kinda sucks for making a bracket. I'm still on the fence if it's worth developing and making the brackets to utilize the stock calipers or put the same effort into a bracket for the wilwoods and be done with it.

Are those the John Cooper Works rotors Rock Auto had for sale a week or two ago? I looked at them,but they did not specify the diameter. Some of the JCW rotors are 315mm instead of the 294mm needed for the 11.5" brackets.

These measure out to 11.5" or just over a hair. Part number was 140775250.

That's not the same ones I looked at.

When I pull up that part# it shows a solid rotor. Is that what it did when you ordered too? I don't care either way, I was just looking at getting another 11.5 rotor for my test fit setup.

yep....went back and looked and nothing indicated a drilled and slotted rotor. Guess I got that for "free".

You got lucky. I ordered the same part number but got plain rotors.

Does anyone have a part number for 11" mini rotor made by Brembo. I checked Brembo catalog but there are several choices and wasn't sure what the differences were even if the specs looked the same.

Rallas hooked me up.... These are dynapro calipers on 11.5" mini turbo rotors. I can confirm they clear 15x10 jongbloed's by a mile. 1/4" clearance to the barrel hump on 15x9 6ul's. The quality of his brackets are topnotch.

Thanks for the update! Do you have any pics with the wheels installed?

Had some issues posting from my phone, seems like the wheel pics are showing up now, let me know if you can't see it.

On my end it only shows one picture with the caliper and rotor, no wheel pics.
