Everything is empty right now so the pistons aren't a problem.
The picture shows the old set that came with the front brakes. They are a snug fit as it is. I think the pads were fairly new anyways. The rotors are 20mm thick and the gap left by the pads in the picture is only 21mm. Just wondering what I am doing wrong. I haven't found a 944 manual yet to see the procedure, I am just going from the pics I took when I disassembled them
