They do indeed. Looking at the various options, the Wilwoods seemed to be the only upgrade that didn't require the use of spacers. There's the tiniest gap, but I do rather like the fact that I can keep the factory track width.

The stock brakes are good, but based on comparisons (take Motor's BFYB for example) the FiST has the longest stopping distance of all the hot hatches. I've not compared stops against others with standard brakes, but I'm guessing mine would stop a bit quicker...
