I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

What upgrade brake kits clear 15" wheels?

Post by egvtec » November 22, 2005

So yeah... i got slipstreams and i wanna do a brake upgrade but to do spoon brakes i think u need 16 or bigger what fits a 15 inch wheel? i was thinking about oem integra calipers, brembo blanks and ebc pads? But if Willwood or someone makes brakes i would rather have them :wink: What fits?

I think the big brake kits like wilwood and aem require 17" wheels.

I'm doing rear disc, integra front, powerslots, hawk pads, stainless lines...behind 15s.

Check out wilwood's site along with some of the other big brake manufacturers. I think you can fit them behind SOME 16" wheels...it just depends on the offset.

IMO...I would stick to Integra brakes w/ upgraded rotors, pads, lines, etc. That way you don't have to worry about clearance issues, etc if you get new wheels.
