Looking really good on the car from where I'm sitting.

A bit unconventional, but also original. Hope you love 'em!

That's barely any poke. Needs to drop it down a bit more and a little camber to protect the wheels and you're good.

I have the same problem.

i guess stick to your stock wheel and tire combo and have a GOOD DAY SIR

lol i can asure you i can afford rotoras, i prefer my AP racing bbk that is on the way to my house though. A bbk will not bring more stopping power. On the street where this car will be used you are limited on stopping power to your tire grip, i dont think the OP is running heated R comps to make use of the stopping power of those rotoras on the street. I can assure you the stock brakes with good pads would lock up the abs just as good as those rotoras. BBK'S are meant for track cars to prevent fade and in the case of the AP Racing brakes to also get rid of unsprung weight and provide more braking force demanded by the higher grip tires. If the OP did it for looks well then its his money and he can do what ever he wants with it, but if he did it for function i can assure you it wont make a damn difference.

OP props for being original even though its not my cup of tea.

not trying to stick up for the OP but we really don't know what he is doing at all correct? he might track the car we really don't know. im sure the AP brakes are a lot heavier than the factory system. please stop being an E thug on this thread. no need to replay information you might not know.
this is a cool car that is dressed up nice in my OWN opinon.
i hope your and your bad ass AP brakes work well for all around driving and the track .... that's if you are tracking your car.

AP brakes shave 10 pounds of unsprung weight FYI check out the AP brakes thread on the forum. And yes i do track my car, probably 3 times a month you can check out my build thread in my Sig.

pcasso87 has built up a pretty colorful history of tracking his FR-S. No E-thuggery going on here. Just truth. I'd have said the same thing but he beat me to it.

For the record though... I have a set of Rotoras for my other car which I picked up dirt cheap with the intent on tossing them. 3yrs later they are still on my car! Pretty darn impressive set I must admit. They did copy the Stoptech piston specs (at least for my car) and therefore achieve the same brake bias so no points for originality there.

Props to the OP for building what he wanted. Unfortunately, when you post your car on a public forum you have to be willing to take criticism with the praise. I wouldn't have build my car the way he did, but him and I probably have different goals. The truth is the car will be faster with smaller, lighter wheels. Will it look better rolling down Main St? You be the judge. I'd rather roll down the pits vs. flossin' on the blvd but that's just me.
