Default any chance of a definitive wheel/brake thread?

as in:
which brake discs fit which models and which calipers fit which discs and which wheels fit over which brakes!!

(I'm thinking of upgrading my classic 277's but need tyo know what I can get...just in case they appear up for sale anywhere! )

I thank you

The discs and calipers bit is easy, but i think there are just way too many wheels to think about......

I was thinking more of wheel diameter and offset rather than specific manufacturers/models
......a table with model and OEM brake specs and then a list of popular upgrades/swaps

e.g to fit 4 pot Brembo front calipers would require 294mm discs with 17" min. wheels

sort of thingymajig?
