Brake sizing?
« on: March 17, 2019 - 09:11:36 AM »
Have been thinking about brakes, I’m planning on going with Wilwood front and rear disc. I’m wondering if the better combo would be 12.19” rotors and 4 piston calipers on all 4 corners or 13” with 6 piston calipers on the front and 12.19” with 4 piston calipers on the back. I’m not quite ready to buy brakes yet just like to plan ahead and want to build the best combo I can, I’m not building a race car just want modernized handling/steering and braking for spirited driving and possible autocross adventures. All thoughts/experiences and opinions appreciated.
