Just wanted to see a concensus of other or same Big Brake Kits and how they look on a car with larger rims or stock rims. Overkill for a street car but it completes the looks when upgrading to larger rims.

Here is mine:


13" Rotors
6 Piston Caliper set up for front
4 Piston Caliper set up for rear
2 Piston Rear E-brake
17" Volk GT-C Front 41 mm Offset
18" Volk GT-C Rears 43 mm Offset

I'm not really into the rice thing but this is one thing that I truly think looks good. A 911-owning friend put it best: "There's nothing more tacky than seeing some yahoo with 19 inch rims surrounding really dinky tiny stock brakes. It's like pulling down your underwear to show the world what you're compensating for."

If you're going to put those gigantic larger-than-stock rims on your car, then at least make it look the part with larger-than-stock rotors too.
