Nice Choice with the StopTechs! I Love mine and Im sure you will to!
I have been putting off getting the rear 13" Rotors but really I need to step up and get them.

Question for you guys... For front and rear, how did you guys know if the brakes would clear/fit your aftermarket wheels? In my case, what can I do to verify if those stop techs (or any other brand) would fit my setup? Also, can you please pm me your approximate cost for the front and rear setups? This might be my next upgrade... Thanks

I talked to Jason at Hypermotive Performance and he had the Stoptechs on his car. He offered me the opportunity to try my wheels on his car to ensure it fit. I jumped at the chance to ensure my money was not wasted!

The Kit from him at the time was at a great price so I jumped.
They are a great setup! I went with the 4 piston version (lil cheaper) but I can also change out pads at the track without taking off the calipers! Yeah thats right...and with the right wheels you might get away with it without taking off the wheels! Seriously, its pretty cool!

Yeah I know jay pretty well. In fact, just talked to him yesterday and twice this week. I'll have to hit him up. Essentially, I want to know what brake kit would fit my 20" niche milan setup

Man, it's your $ but with you having no plans to track your car (at least that's what I remember), that just seems like a waste. Custom leather seats or something else seems like a good next step for you Burton!

I would agree. I do understand the want for them though. Having the supercharger and increased power, I'd want the assurance of added braking capabilities. Plus they just look nice too. But I don't know if you'd ever need that level of braking, unless you track it. At the same time Burton, you're not a frills type guy, and there isn't much else to add to your ride besides the braking system.

Guys, I appreciate the candid response. You guys are right, I have no intentions of tracking or dragging or racing. So, the brake kit would really be more aesthetic than anything. Then again, I'm not really "using" my blower or suspension setup, one could argue, but, it's there in case I just want to romp it

I am looking at a new hood too in the future. So you're right, I'm leaning now more towards aesthetic mods. The brake kit would satisfy both.

My wife also has a prius, if you're only getting 44MPG you either need to over inflate your tires or your traction battery may be on it's way out.
I'm about to drop 2-3K on a new traction battery for my wife's car. I'm pissed!

Just went ahead and removed that 5.0 supercharged sticker, then applied compound/finish-glaze/paint sealant to the whole panel, to get rid of the ghosting that was from the decals.

Now just the pony is back there, and I do like it a lot.
