have not done one but i suspect the new calipers are much bigger than the oem and therefore the new rotor size/caliper will most likely not wotk on 16, or it may be that it will "just" fit so IPD makes this disclaimer so they can get out of possible warrenty issues with bad installs.

I have the Zimmerman cross drilled rotors on my car with stock rims and sotck calipers, with mintex racing pads, and the stopping power is much improved, no more brake fade, and they wont warp nearly as easy as the oem rotors that i went through 3 sets of on the front, so far i am still on the first set of zimmerman's nad i would recommend them.
