I was wondering what is the biggest size brake rotors thatb you can fit under various sized wheels.

I have 330mm 4 piston AP Racing fronts under EL GT rims 17 x 8.5

I though i would be able to get bigger but thats all that fits. What size would fit under 18's or 19's?

well 1 inch =2.5cms or 25mm. a 1" inch increase in wheell diam should allow for teh same size increase in brake size so a 18" rim should fit a 355mm rotor.. BUT with the bigger rotor you may get a bigger caliper. so a 18" rim may only fit a 340mm rotor to allow for the extra height in caliper

I dont think youd see one similar to pyroay's, its very original :D That, and it is driven around a fair bit, i remember it being discussed in FM MKI, that and the cost of repsraying a front bar in that awesome paint!
