yes they will fit over brembos, from what paul told me. the only plans i have for brakes is new pads. being a compulsive cleaner it is taking years off my life having the stock pads. deep breaths..... ahhhh.... must clean rims...... deep breaths...


heres a funny story though... the installers, who are a reputable performance tire place, tried to bolt the first one on and said {out of the corner of his mouth, careful not to let the cigarrette ash fall} "you done bought the wrong rims, they aint gonna fit." turns out the 'hub bolt', rotor bolt, or lightning bolt, **** i dont know something was in the way... i had no clue. long story short, so yeah, you have to remove that thing...LOL
