it depends on the size of the wheels you're getting.

example: if you stay with the 17 inch size wheel, you'd be ok with the stock brakes and calipers (unless you want to do autocrossing etc, then definitely go with high performance brakes, make sure they fit when the wheel is installed).

now, if you were to go to an 18 inch or 20 inch set of wheels, then you would want to get bigger brakes to help you stop the car. i've seen too many guys that get "dubs" but leave the stock brakes on their cars and they lose brake performance (it takes more distance to come to a complete stop with the bigger wheels).
