The front upgrade works just fine with B14 SE-R wheels, I had no issues. The rear upgrade will fit 11" rotors (judging by the post right above you.)

How is it that the maxima rears have 2 rotor sizes.11"maxima, and 12" spec v? Which is it?

I was wondering the same thing. Maybe there are two different caliper brackets available?

Also, I'm not sure I would even WANT 12" rotors on the rear. And definitely not with the Altima MC as well. Larger rear brakes will already change your brake balance, and then the Altima MC will add more negative bias. I get drop throttle overstreer with stock rear brakes w/ cheap pads. I would think that trail braking would be a recipe for inevitable spin out with that much rear braking power.

the spec V rear rotors with brembo are 11", non brembo are 10".

I will be doing this with stock A32 rotors and calipers, as I already have the whole set sitting in my garage! Great info happynole

This is my rear brake upgrade, A32 11" rotors and calipers.
Fits nicely in 15" wheels, I'm using a 1" bore MC from the JDM W11 Avenir, my car is RHD BTW.

Does anyone know how much the AD22 brake setup weighs compared to the stock B14 brake setup?

ITT: People who think a larger disk=more brake force.

What a joke.

I know the calipers and rotors weigh more, I do not know exactly how much. Maybe adding ten pounds on each side?
