Going along with my lattest updating, I wanted to do bigger wheels... probably 18's. And chances are they willbe pretty open and allow the brake discs be clearly visable. I currently have power stop rotors up front, which don't look bad, but along with added performance a nice big rotor would look alot better for show purposes. I saw the kit RSM has for the 92-98 GA's but does anyone have any clue as to if it'd be interchangeable onto my 88? Mantapart(not sure how asthetically pleasing it would be) has a big brake kit for the 85-94 N bodys, so judging by that I'd assume it would work.
Anyone else have other helpful input for me?

Are you against having a different bolt patern on the front?
If not i might be able to put you in touch with someone that will put a kit together using 13" rotors.

I plan on running nothing smaller the 17's(thats what I currently have now, but I'll be upgrading from them soon if all goes as planned.
BTW got a reply from an email I sent out to RSM Racing, and they(Nelson) claim to have a kit for me. :) yay

Cool, what im conserned with is how much room behind the spokes you'll have for the caliper to stick out. but if RSM has something for ya, that would probably be the way to go!
