jbsali · 07-14-2022, 06:48 PM

Does anyone know if there is a Big Brake Kit OR just a good aftermarket caliper (with my stock sized rotors) that is compatible with/ can clear the BRZ STI 17X7" OR the OEM 17x7 wheels on a 14' BRZ?

Long story short, I'd like to upgrade the brakes to a BBK but I don't want to switch out the STI wheels I have. I'd also rather not have to size up to the 18" as I'm happy with the wheel and suspension setup. My pads and rotors are already upgraded to street pads and slotted rotors by Stoptech.

I would even entertain a caliper-only upgrade too.

If anyone has been through this or have any recommendations, it would be really appreciated! Thanks in advance, friends!
