LOL I read the title of this thread and went "that's stupid, who would ever think about downsizing brakes?"
Then I realized it's me

Now I am hoping to find a lower profile caliper if there is such a thing in the aftermarket. But if not, I may need to do the rotor and caliper conversion to fit the 15" rims. So you did not have any issues with fitting the 15"caliper mounting bolts in the old 16" front assembly then?

You're in the 3rd gen section, not 4th.
