Yeah, but changing rotors would be a pain in the arse.

For you car enthusiasts among us, ever seen anything like it before? Never thought disc brakes could be attached directly next to the differential like that.
I've seen that a few times on custom build hot rods. Not sure how effective it would be on a daily driver being that far away from the spinning mass of the wheel but sure looks neat.
Yup, just the other end of the drive component... No worries...
'cept when it's time to change rotors...
Pretty cool look though!

Some cars use them to increase performance by reducing the unsprung mass but I don't think that is too common due to the pain it creates in replacing them. I think you have to dissassemble the axles on most designs.
Some off road vehicles such as the HMMWV aka Humvee or the Unimog use inboard brakes in order to allow the offset axles they have to give them more ground clearance.

Why do I think you're going to regret that statement somewhere later in this thread?
