    Will these fit with the challenge wheels?

    Yes. They are made to fit under challenge rims or those on the f40lm. They will not fit under normal 355 rims.

    Thanks, Robb! If possible, it'd be great to know the center-to-center distance between the mounting holes as well.

    Cheers,

    Nice! Pretty sure they just bolt up to a 355. Tempted as it would be nice to have spares. I'm surprised you are not using them to upgrade the yellow car. ;)

    These do bolt up directly to F355 with the rest of the setup: rotors, brackets, etc. I don't think you will see these calipers very often for sale especially with F40 owners out there. They have a super nice finish.

    Decided to keep the yellow Berlinetta 98% OEM. Only a few very easy reversible mods on it.

    You can comment on how good the 355 challenge brakes were at Laguna Seca... Out braking everything in sight.

    They were crazy good at the track with only street pads. Helps our cars are lighter too. Whoever gets these will be getting a great deal. Are they a matching pair or both for the same side?

    Both for the left side. The finish is crazy gorgeous...

    These are still available. They each have 4 piston. Rotors for these are 355mm. I believe they are the same size as 360 challenge brakes but have different mounting brackets - But they are very big and have huge stopping power...

    Is there any reason you couldn't swap the bleeder screws and balance tube top to bottom on one to have a left and right? Or are the bores not the same size top/bottom?

    Robb, did you ever determine the piston sizes? The reason I ask is that I have an almost identical set of calipers new in the box that were sold with a brake upgrade kit and I'm wondering if they're the same. Seems like they were sold as "F40 calipers" but that was a long time ago and my memory is bad. I'd always figured it was just a marketing claim but they look identical with one small exception so I'd love to know important measurements from a set of known F40 calipers.
