Just tried 11.75 template with new 9" wheels from Phil's offering and it fits without spacers - the Joengbloods 15x9 hits the lip and needs a 5mm spacer (already confirmed)

while these wheels clear - the balancing weights if placed towards the inside lip will be an issue. likely 5mm spacer needed.

Fitment notes added to list. Thanks!
You need at least 3 mm clearance to any part of the brake.

Default Duct ETA?

How far away is the date when an order can include the ducts?

No ETA on ducts yet. Still tweaking the design. Hose kit will be available soon.

I figured ~8 months is a reasonable amount of time to ask if you have any updates on the duct/hose kits?

You would think that, and you'd be right, but still no ETA. Final (hopefully) prototypes should be arriving very soon, and if they check out then we go to production.

It's taken us a few tries to get the ducts fitting the way we wanted. It's proven to be quite a challenge. As with most things these days, longer lead times to get prototypes and production started so it's taking more time than we had hoped. Thanks for your patience everyone.

Patiently waiting as well, but you can't rush perfection!

Default Ducks!

Quick update: Brake duct design is finalized. Production started though the lead time is a bit long. We should have them in stock early March.
Working on a short video to show the ducts up close. Should be uploaded in a week or so.
