A few questions about brakes.

Good afternoon,
I have a couple of questions about brakes. Are the front brakes the same across all the trim levels? It seems like a previous owner cobbled together something and I can't fit SVT focus wheels over the calibers. One of the wheels that were on it has a crack in it so I either need to go back to stock or find a wheel that will fit. I'm leaning toward going back to stock as this is my daily driver.

That's an aftermarket BBK, nice score... SVT factory wheels should clear at 17"

Unfortunately, the spokes hit the caliper. I would need to install a spacer which I would like to avoid. As far as I am aware, anything over a quarter inch will not pass my state inspection. I regret not getting a photo with the SVT wheel on there. This also is not the Wilwood kit that is currently sold on their site for this car. Someone suggested that it could be an SN-95 mustang caliper with an SVT rotor, but I don't have anything to compare it to. I'll try to take the picture tomorrow.

What year is your vehicle? I've been finding that a lot of vendors made kits very early on for the FiST/FoST and then changed the SKUs when the 2016s came out. (Primarily intakes but I wouldn't put it past Wilwood or someone who contracted wilwood to produce a production run of a specific brake kit)

I have a 2016.
