just think this is as perfect Wheel + Big Brakes combo as it can gets :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

Team Dynamics Pro Race 1. 15x7 +35et clears 12.2" Wilwood 6-piston Superlite (not the crappy Dynalites) calipers. Throw on a set of 225/50 BFG Comp T/A Drag Radials for 1/4 mile while still retaining your big brakes for your Honda. Wow.

There are only a hand full of 15" wheels that will clear those calipers :thumb:

Definitely would NOT reccomend those big suckers if you plan on drag racing. Drag radials are ok, but got nothing on slicks, and you can forget about any sort of slicks with those brakes.. Stopping is over-rated. :lol:

looks like a rally race combo.

thats the best upgrade for the sti guys looking to run 15s.


braking is amazing i like the feeling of all the g forces. but tires are a better upgrade for braking

i bet the op already knows this.

post some pics of them installed

So question? are you using sticky weights? cause it looks like you will have clearance issues with that. It looks good none the less. Just does not look if you put weights on in the proper place that it will hit the caliper.
