^^^ I have some tricks in the works that might actually help as a fluke (not intended for this reason but might actually work)

Does that actually work? I don't see how the inner barrel of the spare will accommodate the front calipers.

^+1.... I'd love to know as well.

...maybe because the donut is so flat (offset), it sits in front of the caliper

Here's a photo of my '07 sedan spare and the 14" front rotors. There was barely any space to place the caliper properly so i left it off this shoot.

Thanks...
the other thing is, do any 18" wheels fit over the Akebono?
I used the template on my sport 18s & it hits the rim.

Big question is, what are G37 owners doing for snows?

Hope those 2-piece rotors are coming along just fine! (front & rears).

Anyone have a set of Enkei NT03+Ms to check if they'd fit?

I've been talking with Coz.
The rears aren't happening "YET"
They're having trouble with them but they're still in the works.

I've already paid up front for 2-piece rotors front and rear... if they "arent happening" I would hope he'd call or PM and let me know...

Is this an instance of bad internet info?

Coz - please advise.

I suspect the problem with the rears is the drum brake requirement.

But not having the 2 pc rears isn't going to break the performance bank. It's the fronts that weigh a ton.

But I do understand that you want them because 1) you paid for them and 2) for asthetics.

Impossible: not capable of occurring or being accomplished or dealt with; "an impossible dream"; "an impossible situation"

I don't make posts up.
Sarcasm:

1. Harsh or bitter derision or irony
2. A sharply ironical taunt; sneering or cutting remark

I didn't know that 2pc rotors was going to start so much drama

As soon as these get done, you guys will know, and then I will gladly take your money, and in some cases I already have
