Has anyone installed this kit yet and if so, how do you like it?

I made my choice as far as rims to go on my car (18x9 Bullets in front and 18x10's in back) in december and this brake kit seems like a good choice for the front.

I wanted to know if anyone has gotten it yet?

If that is your cup of tea. I think they are way overkill and have a downside of adding un necessary weight.

 

MM&FF had an article on the install of the kit. If i remember right, they only fit with 20in rims.

 

Their website says minimum size 18" rims... but I'll do some research, it's possible that they don't even though they say it does...


any suggestions for a 4 or 6 piston caliper....

I dont mind a little overkill.... I'm only going to buy the kit once...

Here are some other options.

 

Stop-Tech 4 piston kit is the best performer for the money IMHO.

 

A 4 piston Stoptech will run about $2400-$2500 with all the options. I will finally have my 4 piston AP Racing kit out next week and it will run $2195 with all the bells and whistles (zinc, slots, cross-drilled, two piece 14.25” rotor, etc).

If you have your heart set on SSBC you might want to see if they have a wheel template. I know that our 6 piston front kit will not fit an OE wheel. Good Luck!
