I'm pretty positive you are not going to be able to fit larger diameter brake rotors if you continue to use those 17" wheels. With the factory 16" wheels (like I have) it is already a tight-looking fit.

With the 22" wheels I am sure you can fit something plenty larger, though.

Some companies to look at: Brembo, Baer, Wilwood...I'm sure there are others, too...

When I called about these

http://www.autoanything.com/brakes/77A4619A3565542.aspx?kc=ffsku

The tech guy told me that my 16.5" wheels wouldn't clear, but a 17" would.
This is about as reasonable as the prices get for a big brake kit.

I decided that when it's time I'm just going to get some decent drilled rotors and some quality pads, like ebc or similar. It's less than 1/3rd the price of the big brake kit.

I like these

4WD WITH 12mm BOLTS WITH PRODUCTION DATE UP TO 11/29/99'
priced at:
Location: Front
$229.00 (Pair)
Location: Rear
$245.00 (Pair)

they are pretty pricey so i'll probably get a set at a time them install them together.
