    You have small brakes, no need to swap them to fit RS rims.

    The RS wheels are the only factory 16" wheels (without spacers) that will clear FHI 4 pots. You will have plenty of room for your current brakes.

    alright thanks guys, but i wouldnt have the braking power of a 25rs right? since the 25rs alloys would be heavier.
