Caliper Options For Stock Rims... Help!
I have an '05 Mustang GT, stock rims. Looking to upgrade my calipers. Are there any brands out there that make a caliper that fits stock rims?
For rotors/pads, I purchased DBA 4000 Series rotors and Hawk Performance Street pads.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sadly I think there are none, I really miss the PBR Calipers fitted to the New Edge cars, The current S-197 TRW stuff looks like junk in comparison.
If you have the 18" wheels, the only way to get different calipers in there and use the stock wheels would be to use spacers.
Ford could probably make some good coin on a polished 18 x 9.5 Bullitt wheel featuring a 45mm offset.

Try BAER brakes website. There might be a set that fits if you have the stock FORD optional 18 inch rims but you'll have to test them with the fitment templates available on the BAER website.
When using the templates, be sure to check the scale against a ruler and adjust the print size until the scale matches a ruler.
I think I tried some of the templates against my 18 inch fanblades and some of them fit but I can't remember which ones. But I didn't pull the trigger because I also picked up a set of stock 17 inch bullitts to possibly use for DRs and the BAER calipers would not fit 17s.
