I don't currently have the dimensions for the Brembo rear brake kit. But StopTech rear brakes are bigger than Brembo rear brakes. So, if the StopTechs will fit, then you know the Brembo brakes will too. Download the StopTech rear brake template here:

And follow the instructions for using it here:

I don't know anything about brakes, so can someone help me out. If i put brembos only in the front and keep it stock in the back, will it harm the back breaks. Will one set in the front be enough..

Putting a big brake kit in front and not in back won't harm the rear brakes. But it might result in too much front brake bias. That means the front brakes do all the work and the rear brakes are just along for the ride. It all depends on the rotor and caliper size. Many Brembo front kits really need the associated rear kit to bring the car into the proper balance.
