Default Big Brake kit wheel fitment...

I have had a few people ask if the 12.2" kit made by Wilwood will clear a 15" wheel and finally was able to test fit one to the Pro Race 1 in 15 x 7 with +40 offset. The caliper will clear the wheel with room to spare, but it actually fits a bit better if you do not use the thick shim between the bracket and the spindle...so if you want to runs these monsters and keep a 15" wheel you can.

What is the width of the rotor? Also, would you be able to make a set of hats that would adapt the kit to a 98 Prelude?

what are the specs on the components in question? brake size, car, wheel size, etc.
i must be crazy, because my 12.2" kit did not fit under the 15" 42 offset TDR pro 1
