You can still run your ET40 15" OEMs but if you have adhesive-style balance weights mounted inside the rim, check for clearance. I would grease the guide pins.
Do you have the 9k calipers on now, or are you planning to install? If planning, I found that you don't need to weld or bolt on the c900 hard line bracket if you use a couple hard line brackets from a pre-88 c900 caliper w/front e-brake. Mounting holes on these brackets are the same. Heat the bracket w/propane or the like, re-bend the 90* bend to re-position the hole through which the hard line fits. Also cut off a small tab. This bracket is thick enough to take up the slack in the stock mounting bolts, which, if not shimmed, will rub against a 9k rotor (thicker than c900 rotor by a bit). Kinda tough to describe exactly; I can prolly borrow a digital camera this weekend if interested.
