caliper face...all the way. &nbsp;diameter is a piece of cake. &nbsp;you could ALMOST fit 14's on with the Z brakes. &nbsp;the rotors are only 11". &nbsp;just an inch bigger than stock, i think. &nbsp;add the caliper after that and it's only something like 12.5" diameter or so. &nbsp;the hardest part is that you're adding about an inch to the outside of the caliper...you have pistons on the outboard edge that you didn't before.

don't worry about diameter...that will fit. &nbsp;worry about offset/backspacing and spoke design. &nbsp;that's the most crucial. &nbsp;like i said, my 17x7 +40 fit, but some 17x8 +35 won't fit if the spokes aren't designed "right".

Eric
