Evo IV brakes?

Does anyone know what rotors and brakes will work for an Evo IV. Kinda hard to get parts for a JDM car.

Stock wheels fit over brembos.
Stock VI are 7J +38. Stock V are 7.5J +38.
The stock VI calipers are actually very big.
If you have the right offset wheels on the car, then you wont need new wheels.

You are like 1 week late. I just tossed a set of VI brakes in the trash.

I'm pretty certain you need larger wheels than the stock IV set to fit over the brembos. I haven't actually tried myself though. Stock V or VI wheels would be a cost effective solution.

To the OP, I can source a set of used Evo IV calipers (2 front and 2 rear) for as little as NZ $50 (under 35 euro) plus shipping (might hit you a bit hard). Rotors are pretty inexpensive as well. I won't be able to guarantee the condition of them (as I will be unable to test them) and returns/warranties will be a bit difficult to sort out with the international situation.

If your situation gets a bit tight, PM me and I'll see what I can do to help you out.
