Default Wheels and brakes

Does anyone run big brakes with 15" or 16" wheels? I would prefer 15's but I am wondering what your opinions or experience is with a larger caliper and rotor. I will be buying some new wheels, possibly stock blades and I am trying to see what my options are for my teg. TIA

Please post your offset, wheel size (diameter and width) pictures and brake kit setup. Thanks a lot

Generally most quality big brake kits call for a 17inch wheel minimum.

So just buy a nice rotor set and aftermarket calipers.
I've drove cars with Big brake kits. During hard braking you don't have as much pedal fade and keep a steady braking consistency.

15's and 16's...no I've not seen big brake kits that'll work with them. Thats just me though.

Are you sure? I've heard some 15's can clear spoon calipers.

You are right. But spoon caliper means u can only use up to 11inch ITR discs, which are actually sufficent for track use, given u have upgraded other brake component as well.

Which offset is needed? And wheel width? The problem is, is that I intend on selling my 17" volks for something smaller.
