Gabe's Big Brake Kit? Anyone using?

Gabe's Big Brake Kit? Anyone using?

Postby chullen1 » Mon Jan 09, 2012 2:51 pm

I am currently talking with gabe about his big brake kit that use 40% larger dual calipers than ES300 calipers. The rotors are a little bigger than supra TT rotors. My real question is if this brake kit will fit underneath a set of IS300 wheels? I have a set sitting at the house and want to know if anyone who is currently using this kit has heard of these calipers not fitting inside that IS300 wheels? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They SHOULD fit. The only issue would be thge spokes hitting the calipers. BUT, the spoke design of those 5 spoke's should clear the caliper fine.

Thanks for the help ASG, I was just wondering, there should be enough offset but if not i can add a small spacer to move the wheel away from the hub
