    i get sick of seeing "ls web," are you guys referring to ls "mesh" wheels because those are the only one's that are 15"... if you're referring to the 14" from the SE then forgive me because those are ls "webs"

    so?

    Spacer or not?

    I may be getting the same thing and transfer my current brakes on the hatch.

    No spacers or longer bolts with Legends setup. The only draw back I can think of is the 89 rotor is thinner. This is from memory. Mine uses the Type R rotor, but you need to make spacers or a bracket to space out the caliper a little.

    hmm.... you think this would be worth it for a 2000lb car?
    it would seem to me the 10.3 would be fine with good pads, but hard to say til i can get on a track.
