It's actually "lang", right?  German for long?  I thought the diameter
was in the ballpark of 322mm or so.

I still intended to put a pair of those rotors on my 200q20v, with RS2
brackets, and 993tt calipers, now that I can fit them under the 18"s. 
Unless I hear of some accurate and compelling reason not to, of
course.
