no one mentioned this yet, but the HAT on the brembo rotors is lower profile then the stock durango ones, Your wheels will sit closer to the calipers then they currently do with the brembos.

When i put on my spider monkeys my car had some crazy wide stance that i disliked, with the brembos on, they got back closer to the car and less wide.

the brembo calipers are also MASSIVE. maybe try to find a srt to mount your wheel on hah.

So if i get this right the thickness of the rotor where the wheel studs come through is thicker on the OEM rotors? it can only be a minimal amount or the lug nuts would bottom out due to the amount of wheel stud that stick out.

didn't get any measurements, but it is a small amount, maybe 5mm, there was some other posting about this somewhere as well, but i forget where.

Would it be alright to assume if it's just a ~5mm interference, couldn't you run an appropriate wheel spacer to correct?

I'm hearing it the rotor hat that is shallower. more or less it positions the actual rotor disc farther out.

It could not be or the Caliper Mount would not line up.
