They'll go on the front but they see to be a set of 4 fronts rather than 2 fronts & 2 rears, I'd be inclined to go 4 rears all round if you go that route (though they are heavy).

AP 6 pot kit was designed to fit under the OEM 18" wheels sho wouldn't be any clearance problems (I've used 18" rears all round with the same brakes and no problem).

Never tried the fronts, may need a spacer (but you'd want a 10-15mm spacer anyway IMO).

I ran 4 x rears with 10mm spacers on the back if that helps.

AP were redesigned to fit under OEM 18 inch front rims. make sure you have the CP5755 not original CP5555
