was our problem with the Asanti's we had, then we had to order a true custom 3pc wheel to clear the calipers. No problems since. :D

I want some soo bad.. Not so much the rear as I do the front. Too much coin for the rear too, im not balling on that level....yet.

Robbie, I know this may be a subjective question given you dont know my offsets etc, but do you think they will clear my 3 piece wheels?

I forsee a set in the NEAR future for sure..

Tony.. We've had ours on for about 6-10 months or so and I can tell you that when you really need to stop, the performance is unreal. My wife absolutely loves them. Wouldn't think of not using them on any other vehicle we own. Precious cargo on board, so dropping the cash on these brakes was more of an insurance policy for us than anything else. Plus they look effin badass! :D


What do the parts (calipers, rotors and lines I would assume) typically cost?

not entirely sure which offsets would work for you. I know we had to have about 1.25" of pad, or somewhere near that, to clear the front calipers. Our front wheels are 24x9.5.

Roughly $4500-5000 for the entire 16/14 kit.

Yeah im looking at getting a 2011 escalade and doing the 24 inch reps and the 2/3 drop with a intake and muffler swap out and then calling it good. Just dont want to go to crazy on this thing but the brakes im sure will be needed.

Tony -- Last time I responded to this thread, I didn't have the goods on my truck. But now I do.

What exactly would you like to know? These brakes are the real deal. Just awesome.

I've gotten more gawks at my truck in the last week than I've gotten since I bought it, I think. Just crazy.

you ain't kidding Kirk... when we put my wife's on, we were driving down A1A (along the beach here in South FL) and we were stopped at a light, group of youngins walked by and started goin nuts over... the brakes! nevermind the wheels, the brakes, lol.

I find myself pulling up to traffic lights and people pulling up along the wheels and looking down at the brakes alot. Amazing what a set of fire extinguishers mounted to a rotor can do for a vehicle!
