I assume somethign like this:
La-Z-LinkIf you care about my opinion on any of this (and I think I've told you this before and it was disregarded)
The 19" wheel and tire combo with the 15" brake system has to be for looks more than performance. With that tire size I think you are somewhat limited in your selection of tires, and the lack of sidewall (only 3.2") is also going to hurt your braking ability. And I can only guess your braking performance is going to be limited much more by your front tire's grip than by the leverage your caliper has on your rotor. Short story is: if I were doing a widebody (which I never will), I would work as hard at cramming the widest tires in the front as I did in the back. All that work to stick front tires on that car that many run on stock body cars (and some even run wider on the stock body) is just plain silly to me while shoving 355mm wide tires in back. But, to each their own...I just think the car would perform better all around with wider 18" wheels in the front.
