BREMBO BRAKES
Do you fit discs and Brembo brakes with the Peugeot 406 coupe V6 on the Peugeot 406 coupe 2.0 16v?

Re: BREMBO BRAKES
They should fit if you get the calliper brackets as well, but I would imagine you would have to move up to a 16" wheel. If it's the normal 283mm brakes that you have already, it would be cheaper and more effective to stick with the 15" wheel and look at some performance orientated pads. There is a good choice in that size, EBC, Ferrodo etc.

Re: BREMBO BRAKES
You will definitely have to fit V6 wheels to accommodate the huge calipers ,also I think hubs as well?? As said,not worth all the expense. I`ve never upgraded 406 brakes. In "my boy racer days" I fitted grooved & vented Torox dics&pads to a Mi16x4.I was so impressed with the braking I still use them today on my Merc`SL.
Re: BREMBO BRAKES
Think the only thing I've ever done brake upgrade wise on any car was fit EBC pads. I've got a car that effectively has supercar performance at the moment, and it's only got 290mm vented discs and twin-pot calipers on it, along with motor-factor sourced "normal" pads. It still stops.
