John - The wheels will be out 10mm wider. So a 215 tire (assuming youre a 225 now) will be 5mm narrower on the outside.. You'll still need to either stiffen the suspension, raise it, or camber in a bit more... But worth it. Silver would be hot.
Wyatt, with the LE37T's I got from you, what size spacer would I need to run the Stoptech kit? 10mm?? If so, what would I have to do to make it not sick out past the fenders, I am runnin a 225/255 tire right now. Would I be able to keep this setup, with more negative camber/harder suspension? The Stoptech kit is the kit of choice for me, seems alot of people have had nothing but good reviews for it.

E-Brake is the Parking Brake. When you pull on your Parking Brake it utilizes the rear OEM calipers to grip the rotors and lock the car so that it does not move.
When you change your rear brakes to aftermarket they usually have a seperate smaller caliper that is engaged when you pull your parking brake up since the 4 piston or 2 piston caliper are incapable of clamping down on the rear brake rotors or the calipers are not connected to the parking brake.
I had this on my NSX rear BBK. It was a 4 piston caliper set up in the rear brakes and a seperate 2 piston (in the shape of a triangle) that is engaged when I pull on the parking brake.
I don't understand why it's not possible to connect your handbrake to the rear calibers....
I suppose I don't know enough of the braking system to know why...
thank you very much for the teaching tnguyen0567 !
