Anybody have Baer Alumasports on an 99+ truck?
I need a measurement from the center of the hub to the very outer edge of the caliper. Im trying to figure out if I can squeeze them into a set of 18s Im thinking about using.

You have the alumasports and not the eradispeeds? On their website it says 20"+, but the wheels I have available to me are 18s and they are light and I would like the added performance of the alumasports over the eradispeeds in the front. Thanks I appreciate it if you can get that measurement for me.

i have them and i run 18's at the track , i have used a few different sets and most of them fit, but one pair i have didnt fit until i shave the back of caliper a wee bit but they fit now.

well for what i paid for them yes it was, i did have a problem with my rear rotors cracking but it was from a bad batch and baer replaced them very quickly. havent had any problems since then. i also did dtainless brake lines at the same time and its night and day compared to stock. the pedal feels very firm and im not afraid of someone in front of me slaming on their brakes, i am afraid of the person behind me with the crappy brakes though.

IM thinking between dropping my truck, sway bars front and rear, ss lines, hawk pads, alumasports up front and eradispeeds out back it should make a big difference in how my truck performs. Im just trying to get all my ducks in a row for my tax return money

well i can tell you that my SS performs pretty well in the handling department( hotckis sway bars, beltech shocks, 2/4 mcgoofys drop, ss lines, baer alumasprts,beltech shims and bump stops) not to mention the 305 22's ive beaten a new g35 through some turns around here, and i hav ecome to the conlcusion i can take most turns at 2x the suggestested speed and not be worried.
