Re: Baer Rotor Conversions - Stock Parts?

Re: Baer Rotor Conversions - Stock Parts?

Re: Baer Rotor Conversions - Stock Parts?

Part numbers would be great. However, I was more interested in "off the shelf" pad/rotor equivalents...but Hawks is fine too.

How would these compare, performance wise, to eibach lowering springs (pro kit) with Bilstein shocks? I'm contemplating this setup once all 4 corners are developed.
