wilwood calipers
Has anyone used wilwood calipers, with bilstein strut assemblys that have 3.5" caliper bolt spacing?

Hi,
I won't comment about Wilwood calipers aside from some advice about using such racing calipers that do not have dust seals or wipers. Street (and some rally) calipers have both hydraulic seals AND either dust seals or wipers to prevent excess wear of the fluid seals. Look carefully at any Porsche 4-piston caliper to see them but racing calipers don't need these since they are rebuilt quite frequently. As such, such types of racing calipers are a poor choice for a street car unless one understands the maintenance requirements for such components.
