I have used them without any real issues. Requires 748R/998R rotors. Yoyodyne stocks Brembo HP in this type.

Some brands or styles of rear wheels are very close to the rear caliper, in some cases a small amount of filing or machining or the back edge of caliper may be required for proper clearance.

Spacers for the front are required, easy to do and simple to fab up.

This is usually a small price to pay given how cheap mag wheels for the 748~998 can be bought compared to what 848 Magnesium wheels cost. I have bought 3 sets of mag wheels for the price that LP is blowing out one set of Marchesini 848 wheels on eBay right now. It is worth doing!
