Just wondering if anyones fit the brembo 315mm brake kit with 16" rims?
Can it be done or do you have upsize to 17" rims?

i have the AEM big brake kit behind my 16s its a close fit but it fits no problem. THe aem one required that i remove a bit of material from the caliper to install them properly tho, so just keep in mind that they might not exactly " bolt up "

12.4" rotors+4 pots under a 16" wheel? doubtful. The AEM kit uses the stock calipers which are far thinner than a 4 piston will be.
true true, the tolerences were damn close just on the aem one, and like he said tis meant to go on the stock hub. Good luck with yours. Why are you wanting such a hefty kit anyways? The big brake kits dont do **** on the street, they are just expensive and look pretty. I had better braking with my powerslot/hawk pads combo, i only run the aems now cuz they we picked up cheap and i figured id give them a shot, but id never use another big brake kit again.
