HardHitten, first of all, there is no such thig as too much brake.

While the brake s on the Scion are descent, they are absolutely tiny. Im running 18" wheels and they look idiotic. Just like all those stupid SUVs that sport 24s and have 10" discs.

2 things, when you add big wheels, the braking distance greatly increases. MOst people dont realize this.

Second thing is, I work for Wilwood, well, not for them per say, but they in a way, send me cars to build brake s for them. A few of the cars at SEMA this year were done by me
