Default Brake Sizes - Aftermarket wheels.

I'll be buying new rims soon. They're 5 spoke rims and the stock brakes are going to look weak behind the thin spoks of the rim. I was looking at these Brembo's on eBay and the specs say that they'll fit on the stock rotors, direct fit.

Does this mean that my rims don't have to be designed for big brakes?

Darius;

From what I see in your auction, your not exactly buying a whole new Big Brake Kit. Your simply buying OEM Spec rotors that are crossed drilled. It really doesn't have anything to do with caliper clearance for your new rims since your using your original OEM calipers. Unless your upgrading your calipers to a bigger size you will not need to get high disc wheels.
