I currently have different components with different machine shops getting bids. I'm not pushing it because I've got enough on my plate right now.

No Toyota or lexus has ever had superb brakes ever! Toyota brakes just plain suck! Besides the brakes and smallish seats, can't fault Toyota! Well maybe the head gasket issues here and there!
PHH?
Should I also mention Nancy's long thread about overheating?

The overheating issue was because of something I can't mention on mud! It was not toyotas fault!
Crappy seats, crappy head gasket issues, s***tttttiiieeesssst brakes, and the PHH!!! Almost a deal breaker...... Still rather have to deal with all the issues than drive a Chevy or dodge!

You're getting a Wrangler, so your misery days are numbered.

Clearly you haven't been in Chit Chat.
Just about everything on this Universe was mentioned there.

You're fine as long as you aren't wearing a bikini...and a woman.
That's funny. Mud got politically correct without my knowledge.
There isn't a whole lot I haven't said here.
PM me and I'll say it for you hahahaha

Are 18" wheels mandatory for this, or is it possible for 17's to work/clear caliper?
17's I'm thinking are that SCS wheel - only reason I care to go 17 is to help the brakes, so is the +1" of wheel going to open up any major brake improvement?
With that 17" SCS wheel thread, trying to figure out a realistic budget to improve brakes, but not go any bigger than a 17 for the sake of keeping sidewall.
If these don't clear the SCS 17's maybe coming up with a setup that does will be more attractive here both in functionality for keeping sidewall height, and possibly slightly less $$$ - seems 17" tires are slightly less than a 18" varient too.

I found a guideline on Stoptech's website and it stated that generally, a 17" wheel will fit a 13" rotor, and it takes an 18" wheel for the 14" rotor. That SCS wheel option would be nice but it would take a smaller brake kit to work. I was wondering the same thing, kind of a bummer as a dedicated wheel for the 80 that also supports big brakes would be great.
