are these a confirmed no fit on 15x8 rpf1?

Haha, I was thinking of getting three different colors, I'll see what I can do.
One set for street (and backup if I bend a rim or two at the track) two sets for track.
I'll be running the BBK all the time. Too bad I really hate how the 6ULs look. But hey, I don't look at my car when I'm driving it. I'll enjoy the proper offset and better fender clearance the 6ULs will give.

Because thumpetto always buys something the day before the upgrade is released.
That reminds me. Marcello, will you go buy a ceramic twin disc, so that the organic one will get released a week after.

Only 2 days after buying the D2S 3.0 projectors, the D2S 4.0 was released. :/
Yeah, I'll probably get that cluch soon, if the pucked 949 clutch I bought somehow (inevidably) fails.

I'm very interested in this kit, is the only difference between this kit and the 949 kit the brackets/hats? I can't seem to find any information on how you guys can sell it for such a lower price.

This does not come with pads, and I believe the 949 kit does. This give you the freedom of using the money you save to buy the pads you actually want, rather than throwing away the Wilwood pads when you get them.

949 gives you the option of choosing no pads, with the same exact options 949 is 210 bucks more. I feel like i'm missing something? I'm aware that they include different brake fluid and have different hats/brackets but i'm curious as to what makes 949's 200 bucks more?

949 is reselling a V8R kit under their private label. Our Trackspeed Gen2 kit was designed in-house and the parts are purchased straight from the machine shop that cuts them exclusively for us. One less distribution step in our model = lower cost to consumers.

I see, okay that makes sense now.

Will the super lite fit under a 15x9 +36 TRM C3M?

Thank you.
And so i know what to order as soon as i make it through this weekend unscathed, the accepted dollar/performance setup based around your kit is as follows:
4 piston Dynapro w/ straight vane because my car doesn't make power.
M-tuned rear brackets w/ off the shelf sport rotors and 1.8 calipers.
Got a pad recommendation to "start" with? Bar is set pretty low by the EBC Yellows currently on the car, but i do like them well enough. Probably because i don't know any better. PF, Hawk, or G-Loc i have no preference between as long as they're readily available.
Application i'm aiming for is HPDE and occasional autox, though i don't care in the slightest if they're optimized or work well for autox.
Appreciate any input.
