Aftermarket Rotors

[Flyhalf]

Could I cut the fender liner or you recommend getting rid of it altogether ?

I removed it all. But it depends on what.splitter you are running.
You can keep the front part but i would remove top and rear.

For information, I've fitted a set of Brypar Two Piece Fixed rotors (konic profile) on my PP1 spec 5.0 and replaced the pads with Hawk 5.0 (Street), leaving the rears as OEM. These have worked great.

The main aim of the rotor change was to lose a bit of rotational mass (10kgs each instead of 15kgs) and a little bling behind the wheels, being that the new wheels showed a lot more of the rotor than the OEM PP1s.

The Wheels are Rohana 20" RFX11s, with the fronts offset at +40. This gave the OEM rotos only 3mm clearance to the calliper. When the Brypars were fitted, this changed the clearance to less than 1mm, so I had to replace the studs with Eibach extended studs, and I fitted a 10mm spacer on each of the front hubs.

Photo below shows the initial fitment without the spacers. Waaaay too close

Further info;

Suspension: Silvers Neo MAX coilovers
Wheels: Rohana Semi Forged RFX11 20"x10" front, 20"x 11" rear.
Tread: Michelin PS4S Front 275/35R20 (OA), rear 295/35R20 (K1).

I wanted to stand out a bit from the crowd with the stance, but I was worried about adding rotational mass going to 20" wheels. The Rohanas weigh less than the OEMS (3.5kgs less each), and the PS4S sizes and spec were chosen particularly because they were lighter than any 305/30, 265/35 (or similar) variants.

Rear brakes were left as OEM as there were negligible differences in weight between OEM and an upgrade, plus the Brypars for the rear could not be sourced in the Konic (E09) slot aggression profile.

I'm pretty happy with the stance (Flush) using this setup, and I've managed to keep the OEM camber specs even though the car is lowered by a fair bit.

I've had the opportunity to use some Girodisc discs recently in a non-Mustang application. They seem to be a really good product.
