I'm in the process of putting 911 brakes up front.
I have 2 sets of calipers and noticed one at has a wider space between the 2 caliper halves than the other set. Are there different thicknesses of rotors or what is the purpose and how do I know which one to use? Just test fit and use prices of elimination I suppose? Attached thumbnail(s)

What rotors are you using? vented or not?
Easiest way is to ask Eric at PMBPerformance. OR Stick pads in there, use clamps to push the pads all the way open...measure between pads. Do both calipers do both rotor types. Rich |
