Brake Upgrades for a 4 lug, what's available Options

[76-914]

Looking to upgrade my present brake system but I want to keep it 4 lug AND keep the parking brake. Not to mention, staying out of the Poor House at the same time. I'm not opposed to moving up to a larger MC. Is there such an animal? TIA, Kent (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

The original intent of the 4 lug disc brake kit was NOT for plain jane daily driver vehicles.

It was for guys that tracked their cars and had multiple sets of wheels and tires. If you only have to buy one set of wheels to go to 5 lug not that big of deal.

If you already have lets say 2 or 3 or more sets of rims and tires that are 4 lug, the cost to replicate that setup in 5 lug can get pretty darn expensive.

The 5 lug billet hubs intent was for people that didn't want to swap out their struts for one reason or another.

One of the guys I race with says he wished he hadnt changed to 5 lug, because it costs so much more to replace the brakes with the 5 lug setup.
I bet he forgot that the wheel selection (width especially) is much more limited in the 4 lug version.
I have to have custom steel wheels to get up to 7 inches wide in a 4 lug.

Brakes should cost the same unless one wants to go with something fancier than stock 911 M (?) calipers.
