Default Will 15" rims clear an 11" rear rotor?

I'm going to buy the powerslot big brake rear kit which is just 11" slotted rotors with the adapter brackets for the caliper. I'm running 15" buddyclub P1's and want to know if they will clear an 11" rotor. Thanks for the help.

GSR brakes should have no problem on Slips. Do you mean you have the GSR front rotors on the back?

Thanks, I can't seem to get a straight answer on this. I know 96-97 ITR's have 11" rotors with 15" wheels. Will I need a spacer or is it just a straight forward bolt on? I'm getting a good deal on the set, $50 for everything and I need rear rotors anyway, so what the hell.

The offset of your rims will determent whether you need spacers or not.

Not true. It depends on the wheel.
