not sure, but the biggest you'll fit in 16"'s in a 12" rotor, so probably 11" for a 15" wheel.

Go 5 lug if you want to stay with smaller wheels. 92notch, the size of the rotor is hardly the problem for a larger brake setup. The problem is the larger needed size of caliper. Your rotor will never be as close to the wheel as the caliper will.
