New 16" on my runner now brakes?

[akdawg]

Removed the 15" rims, and installed 16" factory rims. I have not done the brakes as of yet, but they will be coming soon.
Do I need to go up in rotor size, or can I use the one already on this 4runner.
Not wanting to do the Tundra upgrade, just want to replace pads and maybe turn rotors if needed?
I have the "tink" sound while braking in reverse??? drives me nuts!
Also had the rear axle seal go out, but pads were OK, no fluid on the.

No. You don't just change rotor size. If you did the calipers wouldn't fit back on.

Are you going to the V6 brake calipers that are installed on the SR5's with 16" rims?

They are also refered to as Heavy Duty calipers. I think they are 13WL???
Their are different rotors for the 15" v 16" wheel. I believe new rotors are a good idea regardless. Tirerack.com sells brembo rotors for $68 each

Wait, you have the little "tink" sound when you reverse too? I thought that was just me! haha. What makes that noise???

 

[badattitude]

I have it too, somtimes. The dealers says it is normal. It is the brake pad moving a little with the change of direction. I have performace friction brand pads. I assume Toyota OEM pads would fit better. Do you guys have OEM brake pads or aftermarket?

HAHA! Oh my fourwd1, you made me laugh out loud on that one. I can imagine some guy reading the OP and going, "what the f---?!"

"TINK" and brakes

Sorry yes a I would go to the set up for the stock 16". As for the "tink" it drives me nuts! I think I have it Isolated to the e-brake cable? If I tap the cable it make the same "tink" sound that I hear from my cab. But the "tink" sounds like its coming from the front right.....
"tink"
"tink"
"tink"
"tink"
"tink"

My tink sound went away when my axle seals blew
