If you roll 14's in the winter you can forget that! lol. Unless you get some 17in winters. And yea youll need 17s

Its all depending on the wheel. Some rims are a 16 outer diameter but have less inner diameter than a different set of 16s. Oh and Spacers? Its gonna look retarded.

The minimum size wheels you need are 17 inches with the big brake upgrade. Usually depends on the size of the caliper, but most 16s are large enough in diameter.

I just got the power slot kit. Same as the AEM kit and you def need 17 inch rims. Here's a pic of the clearance.

is it worth it to get BBK? or juss powerslot the rotor?

Larger rotor = more surface space and better heat distribution.

Keep in mind that the AEM BBK just relocates the factory calipers to clamp bigger rotors. All other BBK come with larger calipers and rotors which will provide much more heat resistance and clamping force than the AEM. Either way, when upgrading the fronts, you might as well do the rears as well to get the full benefit....especially on cars w/o ABS
