only way is to run spacers or get a custom set with a big offset.

1" spacer seems like what people with Cobra brakes use

The OP has Cobra R brakes though. The caliper is much wider.

OP, if you want to get skinnies, get rid of the brakes. The whole point of skinnies is to lose weight and reduce friction. Running a heavy 13" rotor with a 4 pot caliper is going completely the other way.

Actually if you read carefully, the OP said he has 01 Cobra calipers. In the thread title, he used "r" instead of "are"....maybe thats where the confusion came from.

Ah, alright. I understand now.

I wish people could type correctly rather than being ****ing morons.
