whats the largest rotor with a z32 caliper that you can fit inside a 16" wheel? is it the 12.4" 3000gt vr4 rotor, or will a 12.75 350z fit?

Just measure the ID of the wheels you plan on using, and if it's more than the diameter of the rotors you plan on using it magically fits.

Rule of thumb... don't beat your bish.
2" smaller then your wheel size... if you have 2 or 3pc wheels, then 3"+ depending on the wheel.

your a magical re-tard, ever think about the size of the caliper sitting on the rotor. I hope you dont have to think for a living.

Though T Chop is incorrect in his advice, it's remarks like yours that reminds me why everyone thinks 240 owners are a bunch of punks. You can correct someone without being an A$$
and BTW,, it's You're (abbreviation for You are) not Your (possession),, I hope you don't have to spell for a living.

i got 12.88" rotors on my car
but they are wilwood, so not sure if that's what you are looking for.
the wilwood calipers i have are literally a few hairlines away from the inside wheel barrel itself,

I've had both setups and the VR4's fit behind a stock Z32 16x7.5 wheel (with 12mm spacer). the 12.75 350z's do not fit. they "may" fit behind some after market forged wheels, but i'm not sure.

lol +1 I'm running 16'' RPF1's and kinda hope a certain 12.2'' rotor w/ willwood FSL's works out. Been keeping my fingers crossed for now.

16" rota grid +10 offset... the spoke design has more to do with caliper clearance, that is where you worry about the clearance, the rotor itself is whatever as long as it fits inside the wheel that should be fine.
good daily wheels =) could careless if i curb em and they're fairly light, of course it doesn't have the glamour of real volks but, to me i don't really care.
