I agree the brakes look way too small with the bigger rims. I'm planning to do mine soon.

Ratha, What is the width on those wheels? 8? 8.5? or 9? A buddy of mine is lookin to put 20's on his Max but wants a 8 inch or 8.5 inch wide so a 245/35 20 fits without making the sidewall stretch!

To tell the truth, I don't like them at all. But maybe you Canadians have different tastes! As long as you like them, that's what counts....

yea i checked and they are 8.5's, anyways Irish it really depends on which way you want to take you're car, are you into flash, are you into speed, are you into riceness, ect. so it really depends on the owner, you hate the rims i love em, i guess it must be the canadian styles, much superior than our cousins to the south! haha jk

ratha, did you do the front and rears? I wish you had told me, as I've got an extra set of rears (brand new). pbr/axxis ult ceramic. Oh well. If you need rears, I've got a set.
