Hello Guys,

will the 14" Baer EradiSpeed+2 rear rotors fit on the back with stock 18" wheels on a 2008 GT500 without any mods (e.g. wheel spacers)?

Thank you in advance

Call Baer and they will assist in your fitment. I had no problem with my 18" alcolas when doing this upgrade. Can't speak for the stock wheels. Baer has great customer service.

yes they will. i have them on both my cars and have all the clearance needed. You will however, have to use low profile wheel weights. My wheels are balanced with the weights on the inside and standard height weights hit the calipers.

Same here know problems. Just make sure you read the directions before installing i did not
And ended up stripping the calipers.thats what happens when you try and rush things.i also
Did the bear front rotors. When you first pick one up you think its heavy but when you
Pick up the stock front rotor it feels like a boat anchor. Good to luck .
