Hi,

Sure, agree with you,,

in each models; all hubs are the same, the difference could be in spindle/steering knuckle..

18 inch wheels will not work with the 8pots. At least not my BRABUS Monoblock. The depth was looking good just the diameter was maybe 1/2 inch resulting in scratching my newly powder coated caliper.
Thus now there on eBay and i guess gonna go with the 6 pots now

Ahh, unfortunate to hear that..!,

6-pot will definitely clear 18" Rims, but why not go with 19" Rims..??
