Big brake options for my s14? - Page 2 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

If I were in your shoes I'd just run the 15's in the rear and run a 16" or 17" skinny up front to help with clearance on brakes. If you don't have the rims yet I'd even run 16's in the back. There's plenty of tire options for 16" rims for drag racing. If you're really hell bent on the 15's it's going to be tricky to get something bigger up front. Gonna probably be a trial and error till you get what you're looking for.

Run 17s up front. If its track and street use go with Z32 tt brake setup and do NOT cheap out on pads. My hp will be above that and I'm running the setup I mentioned.
