I havn't installed my ebrakes yet. From what I saw ebrake shoes are expensive, so they'll wait till later.

When you widen the track, you move the wheel out away from the vehical.
I'll start off by saying this is not personal experience, but from what others have told me..
The offset of the bell part of the disc from the actual disc on 993 discs is greater than 944 NA, this means that you need to use a 5mm spacer under the disc to stop the disc hitting the caliper mounts on the trailing arm when bolted up. This results in the wheel mounting face being moved out 5mm further per side than the 944 NA parts.

Is that any clearer?
