Is anyone here running after market brakes? 6 or 8 piston calipers up front?

They're hella nice, but very expensive!

I don't know the offset of my wheels. They are 26" Dub Bombers. The front is real close, maybe 1/8" - 1/4"or so. The back has a lot of room. They work and look awesome with BIG wheels :)

Offset I think is around 30mm, don't quote me on that. There is about enough room to fit a nickle in between the caliper and the spokes. It's VERY close, but that's how its supposed to be. :)
