Couple things,
- you will start creating a lip on the pad where the unused portions touches.

The xi ebrake show diameter is the same size as the 335 (I have 335 setup on mines straight bolt on).

Hope all works out for ya guys. The upgrade is amazing (even for 335 oem brake systems)
^ agree with your point, that's the main concern of the swap. Everyone refering to this thread should be aware of this. I woulnt track my car until I find a rotor size that fits and works flawlessly.
