I think the high temp pads are all in the same ballpark and work well. I doubt you'll be unhappy with the 4R.

I do, but I'm using extended studs too.

I've gone by the rule of thumb that nething more than 5mm spacers on OEM studs is pushing your luck. I've heard stories of people's wheels coming off using more than that.

I've used 5mm spacers before on the track with no probs.

So would Volk CE-28 + 5mm spacers clear any BBKs?

it depends on the offset of our wheels and the bbk you want

Which offset do you have? CE-28's are horrible for BBK clearance.

I think I have the 62/54 F/R offsets. Joey's old wheels.

Looks like I'll be sticking with Wilwood calipers and swapping out Porterfield 4R pads everytime before I race. That's better than shelling out $5K+ for new wheels and a BBK for now....
