Default Break Options

I was just wonder what the break options were for the 2013-2014 v6 model? I had read that the performance package got the GT brake calipers and pad. However, I read somewhere else that all v6 mustangs got the same breaks as the GT model. So which is it?

Also, will all of the factory V6 break options fit over 17” wheels?

Well, why do you want to break your car? It's brand new, don't break it. Take good care of it and it will take good care of you.

The 2011+ V6 Mustang got the same BRAKES as the 2005-10 GT Mustang; but not the same brakes as the 2011+ GT.

Do you know if the brakes on the v6 performance package will fit over 17" wheels or would they be too big?

Will they fit, yes, but I would not really recommend them for any performance driving. It is only a caliper bracket and a 0.7" larger rotor. The upside is that the pads for those cost roughly half of what pads cost for my 302R Brembo take offs...
