lets see your 15's with HUGE brakes
As title suggests, just wondering if anyones got any mad brake setup under 15 inch rs turbo alloys?
Whats the biggest you can go with brembo calipers? I know i asked the same question on 16's earlier, i just cant part with my diamond cut items!

Cosworth 2wd 4 pot calipers and 4wd disks is the best way to go for under standard wheels

To fit the 2wd 4pots you need to machine 4mm off the mating edge of the caliper tho it's not a straight bolt on thing
