A nice baer kit would probably work. That would include eradispeeds right? I think so. Brake kits are still pretty expensive though. Changing wheels shouldn't be a problem unless you go for huge rotors.

I suggest you stay with your stock setup. Beyond the $2K+ for the initial kit, replacement parts for "big brakes" is pricey ....

Stock. Otherwise, you'll need brackets and a "brake kit" in most cases. Try the Brembo OEM rotors. They work great and don't warp. They are not "pretty" but they work.

You could also upgrade to Z06 calipers for better stopping at a cheap price.
