Believe me I understand that. But if they are selling and advertising 2 piston rear calipers, they've got a problem if that's not what they are delivering. Someone F'd up!

And every ad copy has a notation saying they aren't responsible for mistakes or misprints and that they reserve the right to make changes without notice, just for situations like this.

I had my rear brakes off today, and just as I stated earlier/other places, they are the same rears the 05-10's used. And yes, my car is a Brembo car....

Well if they can do that than why bother even putting the Brembos on the front. Just put plane old PBR brakes and point to the disclaimers. That's BS. Someone better get a hold of Ford to fix their ****!

So its the same PBR bs that we have now? Thats total bs, I cant belive most OEM's these days sell sliding calipers and pass them for good brakes, however they may function properly in the begining, but after a few thousand miles they wear unevenly and clamp improperly. My buddy in his A4 keeps warping rotors and wearing the brakes prematurely. He has single piston front calipers.
