My coupe has the S2 5-bolt hubs.  I used the RS2 brackets to mount my 2000 Porsche Carrera calipers, over euro 314x30 A8 rotors.  Barely fits in my 16" urS4 5-spoke wheels; really more brakes than you need.  You should also change the brake proportioning valve to fix the bias if you add bigger/different brakes.

I'm in Massachusetts; you're welcome to see the car/test fit wheels.
