Default BBK and 17 inch rims

Will the stoptech 14 inch BBK fit the stock 17 inch wheel in the rear. I have drag radials for a set of 17 inch stock rims and I want to get some BIG BREAKS because chicks dig size.

The 14" kit won't fit inside 17" wheels, you'll need to go with the 13" kit.

They won't fit inside the 18" either except for the Track wheels.

I didn't know stoptech made 13 inch front and rear BBK. I know they make a 13 inch front.

I've had a 13" kit on for about a month, even with street pads they are awesome.

Where did you buy the 13 inch rear stoptech rear BBK? I have looked on every website and have only found 14 inch rear for sale. I would like to put 14 inch in front and 13 inch in rear. Thanks

Ordered mine thru www.gscmotorsports.com (a sponsor here, talk to Greg) the fronts use the same 4-piston ST-40 calipers as the 14" kit, the rear uses the new 2-piston ST-22 calipers. I've read that the 13" kit is about 7 pounds lighter than the 14" kit, not sure if that's per corner or per axle.

Thanks I went on the website and they are expensive. The website charges more for a 2piston 12inch rear BBK than does all other websites for the 6 piston 14inch rear. I guess I will buy the 14inch all around and buy different drag radials.

I don't think they are expensive in comparison, plus they are worth it cause they work great. I paid less than $4000 for my 14" front and back kit. More pistons isn't always better remember.

I have the StopTech 13" four wheel kit and it works great. You can also use the 14" front with the 13" rear kits together. However, the 13" front kit is really all you need unless you are going to track your car often. The rear 13" kit also weighs substancially less than the rear 14" kit.
