Default Bigger Sierra brakes under 17's?????

So whats the biggest brakes you can run under 17's ?

I currently have 324mm discs on front and standard cossie discs on rear. A mate has 370mm front discs which is route i was going to go but later found out only 18's will clear them and i dnt want 18's been there don that i like to drive the car hard so 17's are perfect.

So whats the biggest brakes/discs under 17's???

Cheers

That's mine with the 356 mm fronts in 17" on a 4x4. But my wheels have lots of room, the 17s I had before had much less room.

The fronts are actually 32 mm wide, not 35. Remember that when ordering. . And the rears are 20 mm wide, but that is just a standard kit from Reyland.
