Related question: Why must brakes be inside the wheels rather than inboard on the axle? Why not weld disks onto the axle inboard of the wheels and put the brakes there? That would make more room inside the wheels.
Of course on undriven front wheels it wouldn't work because there is no axle, but in front-wheel-drive cars there is one. The brakes could be inboard of the CV joint, no?
