Re: 2017 FK8 Type-R Brembos
If you want Brembos, buy the proper ones for your car... and no, the 2017 CTR's Brembos will not even remotely work on a 2007 SI, unless you have 20" rims with the rotors to match.
- Even then, you'd be doing massive overkill, unless you're running a turbo'd engine with upwards of 300hp... The front Brembos are 4 piston, the rear, single piston, with the latter being more appropriate for a vehicle not requiring such a high level of braking force.

Yeah, the front brake rotors are only 350mm (13.8") X 28mm, you need 18s to clear them. Either way, the rotor and hub on the CTR is way different than the Si - they're not a direct swap. You're better off getting a Brembo Gran Turismo kit for your Si if you want the Brembos (if they make one yet).
