Well, not the only way. I've got Porsche 986 monoblocs (OK, OK, Boxster
calipers) over 300x25 rotors under the Ronals. Fantastic improvement
over G60s, and pedal travel is back where it should be (I can heel-toe
again!). I was able to get them to fade at Barber Motorsports Park last
year, but only after what I would consider very severe abuse. I was
actually over-braking on purpose because I was so pleased with the
setup! After years of babying the G60s, the braking performance and
feedback made me giddy.
Oh, and my setup doesn't work with the Fuchs (or the 6" Ronals). I'm
hoping I can mount them with a spacer, but maybe not.
