Baer Eradispeed 14" Rotor Installation Pictures

I am interested in having a look at some pictures of the 14" rotor kits that use the stock calipers for the S-197 mustangs. Please post some pictures and tell me what you think of your kits!

Thanks

here are mine......these are on my rear. I have the GT-Plus kit on the front

the only complaint I have is the kit didn't come with brake pads or SS brake lines. I highly recommend you invest pads and lines as well if you get the eradispeed kit. Stoptech SS lines are what I have on the rear. you can also look into earl's SS as well, I hear they are good too. as for pads, hands down, Hawk HPS pads for the rear!

Maverick? Are your wheels 17's or 18's. Also, how long have you the Erads...any complaints?

those are 18's bullits on my car, soon to be replaced with 20"s. I was told from the shop who installed them that the stock calipers will clear the 18" bullits if you get the eradispeed front and rear kits. I got the GT Plus kit on the front so I had to get wheel spacers. but I got spacers for the rear as well to make the tire stance even.

going on 10 months with them!

no complaints what so ever, great stopping power, big improvemebet over stock! and that BAER logo just stands out to people I meet.

how much more pad contact do you get with the bigger brake kit?? Do you have pictures of the old pads next to the new pads?

None, if the calipers are the same. The only thing you gain with larger rotors is increased heat dissipation capacity in extreme-use applications.

The key components for decreasing your stopping distance (increasing braking power) are 1) Brake Pad Compound and 2) Tires. Hi-Temp fluid will compliment this nicely but does not directly affect stopping distances--only repeated use life. (However if your brake fluid boils, good luck stopping! )
Everything else is largely cosmetic.
