I'm sure it was AlienPrime who first attempted to try the Big Brake Kit.

Sleepingpanda did it. But it's not really a 'BBK'.
His wheels didn't clear it bc the offset was a bit high.

yeah that was last year! i had bought the brembo superturismo 6 piston brakes for the front, and 4 piston for the rear (ferrari f430 style) costed me over $8300 like a month after i got my car
never fit, like not even close hahaha
they won't fit under my advan's either and i have like 3" between my oem caliper and rim right now...
as for rim size, the 6 piston barely fit in a 18" wheel, wouldnt fit in a 17" haha

well, they dissipate heat much faster, plus the braking quanitity you get for the heat generated is unparallel to any other brakes! I am honestly so happy with my tires, 225/40/18 fk453's and they still handle like a champ! even in the rain they are honestly amazing!!!!

I dropped it off at Defcon Racing right after I picked up the car so they can do my alignment today. It's a last minute squeeze just before a major event this Sunday.

Still don't have the car with me..lol I drove it and dropped it off at Defcon Racing yesterday for alignment but the alignment place already closed when I got there, so I just left my car Dave and John there, and they are getting my alignment done today. I'm possibly going to take some iPhone pictures with a few buddies from my crew and possibly some time this weekend or next weekend going to do a photoshoot with a few 9th gen buddies.
