Rep Power: 0 If you read carefully it states that 17" and bigger rims are required. www.aempower.com. Why don't you get some Brembo ventilated and cross-drilled rotors. I have Brembo's, they work great and they also look tight!!!

Rep Power: 420 They should since they don't have an asterisk next to our application which reccomends 17" wheels. What kind of 16" wheels do you have? Some have a smaller inside diameter than others. The ones that tend to have a smaller inside diameter are the ones that are inset with a polished lip.

Rep Power: 0 The only ones that acutually require 17's or larger are the Big Brake Kits, the OE ones don't say anything about size recommendation.. i have Motegi MR7's grey.. Here is what the clearance looks like now..
I'm thinking it can't be that much bigger than stock right? I wish i could email someone about this.. aem doesn't have any email addresses posted..

Rep Power: 420 No, yours look fine. You have what looks like more than an inch on each side. This should be more than enough to fit the AEM big brake upgrade. If you're still unsure I think you can call them or the place that sells their products to find out for sure.
