I'm most likely to be roling on 15" wheels next summer on my 97 civic sedan. I sould like to know what options are available to get better braking.

Are 99-00 Si front calipers bigger than the other 6th gen civics? Or is the itr the only "larger" caliper option? Any aftermarket kits with large caliper/disk assembly available to fit 15" wheels?

Also, I drive my car in winter... what brake pads do you think would be appropriate?

 

Fast Brakes has several options for big brakes that fit 15" wheel

yes, go to fast brakes they have reasonable kits with good products

 

I have a 96 civic sedan and i have GSR brakes all the way around and it stops pretty damn good. I beleive the fastbrakes is the only other good option.

 

I'm thinking of getting a set of used 15" enkei rp02 wheels, also might have got a good deal on montegi mr7's in 15"... anyone know if these wheels offset will be ok when I get around to bigger brakes like the one's suggested here?

Or should I just stick to eom Si or teg wheels?

 

i would just stick with 15" wheels or bigger wheels and big brake kits....

Personally i would just go with 15" wheels and spend the money on a motor. unless you really need more braking power.... but to each his own.
