18x8.5 +35 235/40 18Damn. Sounds like a no go then. To clarify you’re setup was 17x8.5 ET35 with 235/40/17? Or were you 18x8.5 et 35?

How low is you car? NM, just saw the pic, you're a lot lower than I am.i have the same camber -2.4 and had 235/40 up front and it rubbed especially on the highway. I didn't want to raise my car, so that was a no go
Do you only plan on stopping once?Aside from heat, isn't the braking swept area the same for the same pad, resulting in roughly the same braking force for the first stop?
That wasn't the point of the questionDo you only plan on stopping once?
You'll feel no difference in normal driving. I own both a non-PP GTI and PP, now with Macan front calipers. With RE71R's, with 3 drivers doing 6 autocross runs back to back, zero difference.That wasn't the point of the question

Every modern car with ESC has dynamic brake balancing.
I used a wire brush to sand down Porsche and then painted with G2 Caliper paint. Add high temp stickers from ebay to round out the look
Is there solid info on which seals/boot size is correct? OP still lists the 42mm boot/seal kit from racingbrake, but several other posts indicate 45mm is correct.
Did you ever find a solution for the nuts not fitting? Tempted to pick these up since they’re so damn cheap but kinda useless if I can’t put the damn lug nuts on lol. I have studs same as you.Yay, they fit! Unfortunately the lug holes are tiny so I couldn't put my lug nuts on, and Tire Rack gave me lug bolts (going to call them and ask if I can exchange for nuts). All the pics are with me awkwardly pressing the wheel flat to the hub.
Barrel fitment is pretty close, but more than the Hypergrams, and spoke clearance is huge, even with 0 spacer.
