My new wheels are getting ordered at the end of the month after payday and im just worried that my standard discs will look S**T behind them.

Is it possible to just fit bigger discs to the standard break or will the calipers need changing as well? not wanting to go and fork out a fortune for a complete new set up when its only really needed for the aesthetics.

Cheers for any help

If you fit bigger disc's you will need to chnage/relocate the calipers.

You can get FIG's brackets so you can use the standard calipers with supra TT disc's, still a large cost though

You can use the FIGS brackets which allow you to fit 323mm UK Supra discs with the stock calipers. You can only get them from the states though.

Bigger disks need bigger calipers. FIGS do an adapter to allow supra disks on an is200 and keep the OEM caliper. See sprinter for details.
