i had 2 problems with the install....the banjo caliper hose bolt were too long so the copper washers would not seal...i had to take a good 1/4in off the bolts to keep the bolts from bottoming out in the caliper..:mad: ....did anyone else have to do this??? also my wheel weights were hitting the caliper which i had anticipated....what did you guys do about it?? static balance the wheels??? all in all they look and perform awesome!!! thumbs up!!!:D

I had the banjo bolt issue. I added on some washers to prevent the bolt from bottoming out. I tried to get a shorter bolt but was not able to find a set. Nice job cutting them.

I dont remember having a problem with the banjo bolts. The wheel weights were an issue. I popped them off, dove the car to my favorite tire shop and told them the problem. The reballanced the front wheels with low profile weights.

I had no problems with the install , and as for the wheel balance issue
I also had them install the flater low profile wheel weights and problem solved...:beer:
