I contacted Wilwood to ask about 15" wheel-friendly options. They said that they didn't have any but directed me to TCE Performance Products (www.tceperformanceproducts.com). I emailed them and 7 minutes later I got a response: 11.8" x 1" rotors with 4 pot DPR calipers. In 2016 it went for $1350 + shipping with grey calipers and slotted rotors (I think, maybe the slotted rotors were extra).

Take a look at their site - they seem to know a thing or two about brakes.

There's another option out there. I'm going to go with the V-MAXX 290mm BBK. They provide a template you can print out to ensure the kit will fit under your wheels and I have confirmed the 290mm kit will fit under my Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 15x8 wheels using the template.

I did some research on the V-MAXX website and was impressed that they provide all the parts to rebuild your calipers or if you need replacement rotors and pads.

I plan to order this kit in the next month or two and will document my install and later post some feedback from track use this spring/summer.

I'll likely order from JamSport, they ship to the US and you can order the kit with the braided SS lines

Great find, guys! I'm gonna contact TCE for a bit more info. I feel more comfortable going with wilwood parts since they are easy to replace if anything goes wrong.

I just contacted them. Did they tell you if this kit is still available?

Here's one from Tarox allowing some 14"- 15" wheels to be fitted.

Tarox 6 Pot Calipers 300x24mm F2000 Discs

View attachment 19940
My friend [MENTION=1664]Butterybunz[/MENTION] mentioned he has the Tarox 300 BBK. We tried my 15x8 TD Pro Race 1.2 wheels on his car with those brakes and they did not clear. You need a 5mm spacer with the 15x8 TD's in case any one was curious about the fitment. He runs 15x9 Rota Grids which have a 20mm offset IIRC and they clear perfectly.
