I recommend your rear brake pads be fairly new when testing fitment. You will have to grind a bunch. And remember when going to a sticky tire at the track that when your tire doesn't break loose, the next weakest link may--especially with a M6 car.

with the prostars or draglites you will be grinding a ton off your calipers. i did it this past fall so i could use my buddys draglites. you will have to cut bumpstops off also most likely

Brush a lil paint on your calipers,put wheel on and spin,take wheel off,that will give ya a good idea on where to grind,i have prostars on mine,longer studs/spacers /grinding are pretty much a must with that setup,there are other wheels that just bolt on they just cost a lil more, but ya can pick up prostars dirt cheap,once i get new wheels ill pretty much give mine away lol,imo spend a lil more even on racestars ya might have to grind just a lil, but it wont be as much,as for saftey of driving on grinded calipers,i have many miles on mine and there fine,but i agree fit the wheel with new bpads,
