Default Been using them for over 3 years now...

...they might be the lightest and smallest 4 piston caliper on the market, and I'm quite happy overall with their performance when mated with the right pad.

Currently, Hawk HPS for the street and Pagid RS14 for the track.

Default Is there any chance of fitting 16" wheels over them? (one with huge caliper clearance)

Just wondering.. I'd really love to run 16s in the winter instead of 17s.. without putting my stock brakes back on ;-)

Probably - IIRC the calipers provide more clearance than stock did.
