The template says the disc is 332mm, but the diameter is listed as 343mm on the info page. Can you double check to see whether or not the template is correct?

*EDIT* After checking AP's site, it looks like the front is 332mm and not 343mm. Rears are 335mm though.

Not to mention fitting the stock wheels fitted with winter tires during the winter months for colder climate kids like me. Fully streetable with the finish and boots, this is a wonderful option for cars that see 90% dd and 10% trackday imho.

Exactly ^^. I'm just hoping they drop decent weight. Honestly, the 10 lbs per corner is what attracted me to the Sprint kit sooooooo much. Besides all the other good qualities.

If this kit fits the OEM 17s might it also fit the OEM 16s?


Also curious about weight & price. This vs. the Sprint kit is going to be a tough choice...which is great to have.

The diameter of the rotor whether it's 332 or 343 will be too big to fit 16" wheels unfortunately...

Hi Guys,
I verified with AP Racing this morning that the disc on the new front kit is actually 332mm in diameter, not 343mm as I initially reported. They will fit stock wheels. The wheel fitment drawing is correct, so measure with confidence.

Most likely 8 weeks. It would be a special order item that we wouldn't be stocking.

Ugh. I feared that was the case, but I didn't want to think about it so I threw out overly optimistic time frames. LOL

Bummer...I suppose when the black fades into a drab gray, it will be somewhat less ugly than drab maroon, haha.

I know you're already taking pre-orders, but do you have an estimate when they will start shipping?

EDIT:Good point, it is cheaper..... I just don't want to bother with extended studs and spacers, kind of a pain.
