GTA Brake upgrade
I am interested in upgrading the front brakes on my 87 GTA. I want to keep the stock 16 in wheels and was wondering the best setup I could do to accomplish that. I'm trying to set the car up for touring but want to keep the stock look.

Re: GTA Brake upgrade
The issues with GTA wheels is that due to wheel design you'll be limited to either 12" C4s or 12" LS1s, or the 12.2" Wilwood kit I came up with. Larger rotor and caliper setups simply won't fit inside the wheel.
