we have all see enough posts like "will z32 brakes clear my crappy wheels?" but i haven't seen anything about the rear calipers. i am getting some mesh wheels which to my understanding don't clear much of anything. i was thinking about going with Q45 brakes up front and z32s in the rear. are the rear calipers enough smaller to clear most wheels or are they just as wide as the fronts? i could easily run a small spacer in the back if that's all it took.

if it's too much trouble i might just run S14 calipers (larger piston). i guess it time for more research.

well, the teardrop wheels won't clear them w/o a 5mm spacer. The se rims will. it's kinda tough too.
