Orlando,
Your current wheels are awesome. "Your" Michelins did great at Homestead today.

Get the big brake package for the 18" "rims". BTW "RIMs" are something you slap hub caps on. Wheels are what we are talking about. And while I'm at it, SUV's are TRUCKs NOT CARS.

I really don't know what these other Brembo brakes are? The brakes I am running are the same ones used on the GT3RS cars right out of Porsche Motorsports. You have to custom make an emergency brake because they do not come with an emergency brake application. The calipers alone cost approx. $2,500, apiece.
