    I beg to differ there. I've seen these set of wheels go for over $500 on Ebay before.

    I would like to take them off and put 17" Enkei RT6s on, but $$$ is always a factor.

      pump your fucking brakes to keep them from locking. thats what the ABS system does automatically for you.

      my stupid ZX2 spite the fact it does have the larger brakes, they still lock up easily, not spruse there. i just learned to pump the brakes, and yes its saved my tail from some serious accidents, especially friday morning when we had that heavy snowfall
      LTD is still here

Anyone that made their car like that would be putting themselves at serious risk. Which means, GADGET!!! Fix your car!
        In the works for probably the spring or late winter, rear disc swap and a rear rebuild. I can't really do much about the issue in it's current configuration. Scott tells me he had the same problem with big front brakes and stock drums. My rear brakes are adjusted properly but the proportioning is way out. I do plan on replacing the master cyl with the larger Mark VII unit and installing a new booster at the same time. My originals are still working OK after 20 years, but the pedal feels slightly funky lately, and I think the MC is getting worn out.
