Fronts are just cheapy 165 radials, they are about 25.5" tall. FWIW, when I had 26" reard and these fronts the ABS and TCS never gave me a problem, so they must be close enough to stock height.
Lots of grinding is required, do a search because some members have posted pics of their calipers after grinding to give you an idea. I tried several different kinds of grinding discs, the sandpaper ones seemed to remove material faster but wore out quickly. I bought one for concrete grinding, and while I don't think it will ever wear out, it doesn't cut as fast as the others. I would however, recommend the concrete grinding disc as it will save you $$$ in pads and works pretty good.

Man the grinding and the cutting to fit prostars with large rears suck. I put about 10hrs into doing mine, but I also put in arp 3.25 wheel studs, and it anyone has tried pulling these thru, its hard as hell. Its agravating while fitting them and you may want to give up on it a few times. But trust me it is all worth while at the end.
