I'm pretty sure there are several threads on this.
I have Stoptechs myself.... Are you looking for something in particular?

Good to note that Brembo owns AP Racing now.

Have you driven beyond the ability of OEMs? The stock brakes work very well and can hold up to quite a bit. I've tracked my Moupe many times and just gone with track pads (PFC 01s), SS lines and high temp fluid changes without any fade at all after a full day or weekend on the track. I can think of other areas of the car that I would spend BBK money on before upgrading the brakes. Just my .02 worth.

If you're doing this for looks then both points above are moot. To answer your question, the following companies offer a bbk: Stoptech, Brembo, AP, Alcon, Wildwood, K-sport and Rotora. If it were my money I'd go with either of the first 3, although Stoptech appears to be the cheapest of the 3. |

I have Stoptech 355mm, 6 piston front, 4 piston rear, with stock wheels, you need at least 12mm spacers for the front wheels to fit.

I haven't actually done a test fit on the stock wheel.
If you need the info, I have a stock wheel sitting here and can get some clearance data for you. Let me know.

Like GA41 wrote, you need at least 12mm spacers for the fronts with stock rims. I have Stoptech and have run it with stock rims. The rears are fine without it but look nice pushed out with the 12mm spacer.

Did the same as well. I have both front and rear but mine are 12.5mm Turner Motorsport spacers.

The RacingBrake kit requires a 5mm spacer to clear the front. If you run the rears up front then no spacers.

Really, I don't understand WHY on Brembo website absolutely nothing for problem to use it: if I need to change suspension, wheels or must use spacers, EVERY caliper fit !!

I don't think: I read that some problem to fit the 359M, and they're 9ET31.... And also with 225/45 it's very stretched ....
