Has anyone used a setup something like this?

I will need big brakes but want 15" wheels.

Sleeper,
They won't fit 'bro. Go with the SSB brakes or the Wilwood 12"ers, either of those should work and give good resutl as well.

if you want Brembo's, you need 17" wheels. The Brembo's are great on NSXs, so I'm sure they will stand a Cobra on its nose! Do snakes have noses?

I don't think that they have a direct bolt on kit for 87-93 Stang's, so you will need to get creative. But I'm sure someone's making up kits, just not under a Brembo authorized package. A good source for Brembo is of course, www.brembo.com

Dirt and Bill,

Thanks for your replies.

The setup pictured above is from the Finish Line website (the other one) who does the preparation on the CS Challange Series cars for use with 15" Trigos.

Snakes do have noses and need to stand on them from time to time to get away from other snakes!

15" will fit? Cool!!! That's great news!

Have you considered Wilwood brakes? They make a variety of brake kits with single or multiple piston calipers?

This is one of their kits for 87-93 Mustang - 12.2" with 4-piston calipers (requires 16" wheels though):

Or, like I'm going with, 13" with 6-piston calipers (front)(requires 17"+ wheels):

There is also BAER, an EXCELLENT choice with options up to 15" rotors ($$$), or SSBC. All excellent brakes for the Cobra

Thanks for your reply Keith.

I'm set on the idea of 15" wheels. I love that look! I could get the setup pictured in my original post from Finish Line I suppose, but I wanted to see if anyone else had any experience with a similar setup.
