BAER Brakes INSTALLED!!!!

I dont know how else to put this, but CR @ Tillman Speed is the SH*T!!! WOW, this car feels awesome with the brakes, a great and better improvement over stock! I barely have to touch the brake pedal with my foot and she wants to stop!!! I once again can't thank CR and his speed shop enough for the service they have given me, CR keeping me informed of the situation with the car along the way of the install and resolving the few issues we had with fitment and using my stock 18 bullits! 1 inch wheel spacers and grinding of the grooves on top of the caliper later, the thing is beastly! I haven't gotten to slam on the brakes yet, I'm still doing the heat cycle of the breaking in of the pads and rotors so it may take a while. but all and all, its looking great so far!!

anyone looking to do installation on just about anything, Tillman Speed is the place to go! Highly recommend it!

here are the pics, enjoy!


the rears







the fronts












and the wheel stance with the spacers

To be honest, couldn't have picked a nicer setup, and the car is beautiful! Really clean, and alot of time and money put into it. Couldn't have met a nicer guy either... model customer for sure!

Here are some more pictures of the beast!











And I'll post one more of our newest shop project!

$1200 for the fronts and $700 for the rears, estimated.

remember this is the GT-Plus kit, an affordable kit towards the extreme plus kit. I bought the GT Plus kit cause it was in my budget, you'd have to pay another $1000 for the extreme kit, but I get the same stopping power with the GT-Plus kit as the extreme kit.

I think the spacers are just under 200 bucks for 4. Right around 50 a piece. They're T6061 billet aluminum. They convert the thread to 12x1.5mm from 1/2".

Gotta love it when multiple people quote a multi-photo post

Looks great! I'm doing the same with the stock calipers and upgrading the pads. I like the lightning stang.
