Yes, I know I only have 2 lug nuts on there....I was just test fitting everything.
I present...the Brembo Gran Turismo Big Brake Kit...




There are a couple issues with these big *** things. The Enkeis don't fit over them without 5mm worth of spacers. The problem with that is I have 235-40/17 tires. I had 5mm spacers on the Enkeis when I was running 215-40/17 tires, but the 235s were rubbing a bit so I took the spacers off to stop the rubbing. I tried fitting my Rota D2s (my black/polished wheels) and they don't even come close to fitting :( I really like the style of these wheels too. They do fit my Rota SubZeros (track wheels) with 3mm spacers...so I get to keep those. These brakes just might end up getting swapped onto the car just for track events....but that will probably be best for me since replacement pads/rotors aren't very cheap ($270 for pads and $300+ for rotors...each).

don't forget larger brakes rotors do not equal better braking. What is your intent? Do you track the car (not drifting). Watch for craking with drilled rotors.

My car with Napa rotors and good pads stops better than some "upgrade" cars I've met.

I think the intent is to reduce brake fad.., not so much stopping power.

I will be using these combined with Kumho V710s....sticktires + big brakes = utilizing all available grip when stopping and ultimate resistance to fade. It's likely that i'll just be using these when I throw the slicks on for track days. It's not that hard to swap front brakes....

Yeah, been researching the quick fittings for sure
Found a place that sells them for about $100 per line.

$130 pads will fix that.

I'd love to buy those for 15" wheels.

Yeah...I don't think they'll fit anything smaller than a 16". The calipers are VERY wide...they make the stock ones look like parking brakes
