FC braking options?
 
I got a few questions of interest about braking. What is the difference between the FC and FD wheel hub (5 lug) and calipers aside from how they look? I've also heard of the Brembo calipers from Lan Evo's are interchangeable with the FC without or very little modifcation, someone to confirm this?

Yes the Lancer front brakes are interchangeable with modding too some degree but not too advanced, there is no reason changing from the stock 4 pot brakes tho unless ur planning too go 600+

Okay, I'm aware that the stock TII 4-pots are pretty bullet proof when it comes to handling high numbers as I'm only speculating 300-350hp anyways. As far as a wide wheel setup goes, what would be the "limit" for a safe streetable car? 8-9"?

Rim size? Oh u can go maybe 18x10 before u get trouble controlling it? I got 19x9`s coming in the mail soon.

Okay, thanks! I was looking into a 17X8.5 F/17X9.5 R 35ET set up and just wanted to know as much as I could while still speculating.
