Upgrading to a 24" wheel opinions needed please

[osidesurfer365]

Currently enjoy the setup I am using. I like having the rubber when I'm on dirt roads and hit all the potholes we have in SoCal however, If I was to upgrade to a 24" setup I have a couple questions I could use some help with.

1- Will my current R1 premium rotors and pads be enough stopping power?

2- would it make a difference to change gear ratio, I plan on doing a BB tune next month.

3- I know Tony has great suspension set ups but I want to stay within a budget but still maintain a smooth ride. What would I go with.

Any help you guys provide would be greatly appreciated

When I had 24's I ran stock brakes and had no issues even when towing.

Your overall size should be close or close enough that you won't have to worry about it.

I have no answer to this.

There is my opinion.

You already have 3 inch lowering springs in the back right?

I am having them installed tomorrow. I purchased a 1 inch spacer in case it sags more than the front. I have been thinking about it and the only way I would upgrade to a 24" setup is if I can see my current wheels and tires setup.
