sorry 2+ months later I didn't go back and read(just looked at the thread title) talk to IPO. They clear the 1g brakes fine from what I understand.

Will save alot of time if you do the conversion with after market rims. I did mine and fit perfectly with 18x8.5 after market rims with out spacer. But i used 5mm spacer for incase and for my wide body kit.

The only thing is, if you used 1st gen pads it will not cover the whole rotor. Pic below. The silver ring is where the pad not grind against the rotor. If you used 2nd gen then you all set.
