Think you have to trim the 2wd shields and make sure the brackets are correct side so your handbrake cable is long enough

I think you might as well throw away the dust shields as they will be smaller than the discs anyway.

Unless the escos are offset n larger then yes

You will not find a race car with dirt shields. Without the air cools more, it was the first thing we did on my track day 911 on the advice of a lemans and Porsche experienced engineer
