Which size Brembo Brakes

Comptech sells both a 12.5" and a 13" kit for the same price. I have 19" wheels and would prefer the bigger kit. Any reason why I shouldn't buy the larger one?

ALso can we get a matching drilled rotor for the rear somewhere?

Go for the bigger kit (if it fits).

You will find that there are generally more problems fitting the Brembos due to wheel width and offset (not just the wheel's inside diameter).

Proceed carefully!

General info: the 13" Brembos will fit inside my SSR Comps and they are 17x8" with +48 offset (they will not fit the factory stock wheels).

There are some 18" and 19" wheels that will NOT work with the Brembos -- and this is due to the lack of clearance between the Brembo's caliper and the wheels "spokes"...
