anyone do this and any suggestions? i got the 18" wheels, so i have some clearance, but what is everyone running and how do they like them. I'd like to see someone that has had multiple setups and lets me know which they liked and why.

Thanks,

Are you sure your tires aren't 265, not 165? Your tire and wheel combo isn't much larger than stock. I'm running 305-50-20's with the stock brake system and mine works without a hitch. I've even have over 100,000 miles on the stock pads with probably another 50,000 to go.

If you do go to upgraded rotors, go with slotted ones. The cheaper drilled ones seem to suffer from cracking. The high dollar one's from Brembo or Wildwood are the shiznitt, but you're looking at $2500 to $5000 just in brakes.
