Many steering systems affect location as well. If the steering tie rods are located in the front of the knuckle, then the calipers will be located toward the rear of the centerline. For those vehicles like the Z and the cooper, where their steering knuckle is at the REAR of the centerline, the calipers had to be relocated to the front. Dynamic force has no affect on their strength or stopping power. Also as was said before, cooling has a major contributing factor.
