Default DC5R brakes questions

Will the DC5R's Brembo brake calipers & discs direct bolt on to RSX-S? And u just need the DC5R 17" rims or other right size & offset rims to clear the calipers I think?

TIA for all the info.

i'm pretty sure it will be a direct change over ....but the JDM 17's or any aftermarket 17 inch wheels will have ot be used for clearence of the calipers...now if the Dc5-R uses a different Brake master cylinder or lines...that i dont know...btu its possible

I dont think they'll fit on 16" rims. Need at least the size of the stock DC5R (JDM) rims

Will the calipers/rotors from the DC5R fit the DC2R with bigger rims?

Two piece custom rotors from Stoptech will solve that problem

First thing, I got the Type R front bearing hub rotors and brake caliper. I don't have to modify the brakes to fit the rims. That means if you buy a Type R from Japan, it will still fit into these K1 16x7.5 rims.
