Default StopTech calipers with ap2 v3 wheels

Hello, I’m inquiring on some stop tech calipers and I know that most calipers won’t clear certain wheels. I would like anyone who has put these specific ones on their ap2 v3’s to give me the needed requirements to make sure they will fit perfectly without much modifications. I would like to see if it’s worth it or not

thank you

Did my post seem sarcastic? It was a legitimate question as I heard from spacers, to extended studs, to rolling fenders. I’m on stock suspension so it would vary from person to person depending on their setup.

I don't know if you are just looking to upgrade the calipers or if you are set on StopTech. When I was looking, I concluded that StopTech won't fit AP2V2 wheels. I have Honda Accord calipers with my AP2V2 wheels. The Accord calipers bolt right on to the S2000 with no modifications. They only work on the front..

Sorry if my initial post was less than helpful, it was late and I was grumpy. Bit of searching lead me to the conclusion that most all BBK will not work with OEM wheels without spacers. How big of spacer was never clear, but the only way to know for sure is to print out the templates of the BBK you want and measure....or buy new wheels which are known to clear BBK's. If you go with spacers, then you may need new studs.

After that homework I cancelled my BBK order and bought new wheels which could accommodate a BBK down the road. Are you tracking? Could not tell from your stats but if not a BBK is a bit of a misappropriation of funds. I know you didn't ask for an opinion but hopefully more helpful than my original post.
