oh yeah you need a pair of 10MM spacers to fit Stoptech 355 BBK upfront.The rears need no spacers

is this 100% accurate? All I will need is a 10 MM Spacer to run this?

As far as I know yes. I think with oem rears all around no spacers are needed, its just for the front oems as far as I recall.

OEM rears definately fit, that's what I have on my car right now. OEM fronts with a 10mm spacer will clear.

10mm is what you need for the front (12mm look better). No spacer in the rear.
If you want to check for yourselves, download the templates off the StopTech website. Then , when you cut out the template, add 10mm to the template (to mimic a 10mm spacer). You will clear no problem.
