I've been out of the country for work travel since Sunday (yes I do have a full time job)- and this country isn't a fan of internet :hands:.

I responded to your PM just now (only ONE in my Inbox, you sure you sent 3?), stating that I couldn't come close to the prices you posted from your buddy's shop or from Summit and that you should definitely go with one of those. Glad Wilwood got you taken care of :Handshake:


no prob jenna. I sent a email also just needed them out fast just wanted to give you guys the business since you helped me but now i understand.

have you bought tires from that tire-easy.com before? I need to get some tires for my lightning and they seemed to have the best price. Just seeing if it's legit. Thanks

i went with slotted only on the wilwoods. Like other kits ive had the slotted has more surface area only. It does not come coated so like other rotors ive had will be spraying the rotors semi gloss black with rustoleum to keep the rust away for as long as I can.

Never herd of spraying rotors wouldn't the paint eat away especially were the pads touch??

You do a light coat and your ok. R1 concepts says its fine and with a light coat wipes right off. YOU DO NOT put 15 coats on there.
