Strongest Calipers that fit within 15" wheels

[chepsk8]

Looking for the calipers with the best clamping force that will fit within 15" wheels and work with my 1988 rotors & spindles. I already have the bigger (73mm) Lincoln calipers, 1994 rear discs, and the 1994 Mustang Cobra M/C.

This car does see track duty, so it has to be rugged, and have pads available.

Many Thanks!

Sounds like you already have the biggest ones for 15 inch wheels.

If you are looking for racing brakes you could look to aerospace but I have heard many racers say they do not stop well but they are lighter.

I am assuming that when you say track duty you mean drag racing, not road racing.

Road racing!

Lot's of repeated, hard stops!

If you are doing road racing I would Upgrade to a big brake kit and 17" wheels. There are many reasons to upgrade to this setup but to stay focused on braking I will say brake fade and warpage. The Cobra brakes are so much better than the stock units and with good pads and rotors brake fade is gone completely and stopping distance is reduced.

you might be able to fit a baer 12" front brake setup under 16" wheels. i believe they use the stock spindle, with a bolt-on hub and seperate rotor.
