They are bigger than I expected. Here they are beside a 15" wheel, think they will fit?

You a funny guy.
You know perfectly well they need large wheels with proper clearance.
I think they should stop on a dime and give back 9 cents change though.

Who needs 20" rims when you can have some 20" brakes!

Looks good no doubt.

The brakes that were on there were very large to begin with, so I'm not sure you would see much of a difference except in extreme conditions. I'm hoping he brings his Ferrari by for some mods. I'll definitely be sure to test drive that one myself.


I didn't weigh the brakes.
