big brake kits
I know of two that are from what I understand are decent. The AEM big brake kit and the wilwood one.
Any other good ones out there and for those of you who have bought these, where did you buy them from?

its about 11.15 inches in diamtere whereas the willwood is about 13" in diameter... bigger is better eh?? NOPE!! not always the case....
my limited research showed me that AEM rotor compound was "sturdier" than willwood...
then again, brembo kicks ***, but its about $1200 for that kit... whereas the AEM with pads goes for under $400....
hope this helps!!!

as in proof that AEM rotor compund is better then Wilwood rotor compound thx A lot. I am considering both of them and am curious as to the build quality and longevity of both.
Thanks
