yep, the repro dust sheilds apparantly will not clear 14" rims. They are also junk. buddy of mine was torquing down the upper mounting bolt and ripped the metal.

as far as instructions, if you don't have a chassis service manual, you shouldn't be doing work on your car. it will have everything you need pertaining to brakes, along with just about every other aspect of your car. get one, the price won't break the bank and you will learn something about your car
