Default anyone got 13" bbk on 19" wheels???

I have already ordered F and R Stoptechs, 332mm front and 328 rear. I have 19" Volk GT-S rims. Now I am wondering if these brakes are going to look way too small
Anyone have a similar set-up? Happy with how it looks?
(pics of any 13 inch BBK with 19 inch wheel would be great - searched but not finding much)
Thanks

as promised... no need to delete the other photos... Please note that I only have the fronts done, take a look at the rear for a comparison.

You shouldn't worry about anything... I feel that the 13.1's allow more of the brake caliper to be seen.

Thanks, appreciate it! Saw your first pics, but the new ones give a much better sense of proportion.
Anyway, I think the brakes look great. The caliper is pretty large, so obviously that helps fill in the gap a little more.
Now I just have to wait.....

No problem, always here to help out when and where I can. Believe you me, the 13.1 inch rotors are large enough ...

Thanks again for the compliment!
