Wildwood rotors and top hats??

Why not just get RacingBrake 2-piece rotors? They work with the sport calipers. And only weigh 22lb per rotor compared to the stock 30lbers.

If that's true than they're 1.7 lbs heavier and $113 more expensive. Not a good deal there.

I don't think they'll fit to be honest... the caliper sits a little different than the sport caliper, so the rotors are designed different than our stock ones. I just put on the front Wilwood BBK this weekend. Granted I did the 13" setup.. had to cut the dust shield completely off because the rotor sits closer to the hub than stock.

Wouldn't hurt to call Wilwood tomorrow.

No it wouldn't. And they have so many hats I'm sure one fits. Before I call I'm gonna pull the rotor and get every measurement I can to give them a better insight.
