Yup, that would suck, but you can just mount the caliper on w/o anything else, and see if that fits. Thus, you do not have to remove the brake lines from the original calipers if it doesn't fit. But OEM rims leave a lot of clearance in the rear, so you should be fine

When do you think the 1 piece rear Stoptechs will be available? Also, which Hawk pads would you suggest? I'm leaning towards the ceramics, but any opinions would be welcome. thanks

Mid-May. Ceramics or HPS are a good choice for street.
