Why do you need new brakes? Unless you greatly increase tire diameter or width, or went with a steel wheel, the new package may even be a little lighter than stock. Less unsprung weight and less rotating mass should improve braking.
In any case, you have a variety of options, depending on your budget. Start by swapping in better pads and shoes, like carbon fiber. If you have the bucks, go with a 4 wheel disc system from Baer Brakes.
There's been a ton of information here about brake improvements. Do a search and you'll not only find out what's available, but who's the best dealer.

Thanks, a few people said that I might have to get new brakes with the bigger wheels. I'm glad that I wont have to do that. I think its time to switch to the carbon fiber.
