I have the Brembo 320 mm system, and frankly it's overkill. It looks nice, but costs a fortune and is difficult to fit wheels around.

Todd's kit would be more than adequate for the car.

Here's the brembo:





To fit these on a car with S-lites, for example, you need 20mm spacers and a stud conversion.

I think the 20's would stop themselves.

There are a few MINIs with 20's in the new issue of NEW Mini magazine, but since they are still pictures I guess that there is no actual proof that the cars really drive on them.
