Default Re: Big Brake Kits: the options spelled out- Expanded version

Good info, I praise the writer, I'll wager a lot of people have had questions answered by this write-up. Just a note since I did the Baer front big brake kit on my SVT Focus (their track kit as found on the Cobra Mustang I believe), this was cake to install, kudos to Baer, nice instructions esp the bed in procedure. Install took two of us 90 min from jacking to test drive and the driveability has been excellent, they don't feel any harder (they came with stainless braided lines) pedal pressure-wise than the standard brakes did and feel really confident from pretty high speeds, ie 115+. I was skeptical of this kit due to the pad coverage of the rotor, but they work very well, especially since they were less than $750 for everything, zinc dipped crossdrill/slotted incl tax. Very good value.
