Its not the rotors that gave me the problem it was the calipers i re drilled my old bracket and they fit so i fabricated some new brackets mimicking the new drilled ones bout some rotors and they work perfectly! A lil time spent but alot of money saved!!!

Do the Wilwoods for the tC have weather seals? the reason I ask is I installed a set on my Civic SI a few years back which did not have weather seals. they were meant strictly for racing and about a year later I had to rebuild the calipers.

I called Brembo like a year ago about the same question, if a 5x100 sti brembo caliper would fit, or any non tc brembo caliper in genreal, even with custom brackets, and they said absolutely not. Some applications like hondas, nissan 350z to 240sx brembo bbk's work but theres none for our car currently except the actual tC brembo BBK, sold on dezod.com and descendant-racing.com from what i've seen. That would be awesome though if it did work out.
