How much for just the four rotors? I'm assuming Z51 rotors and F55 rotors are the same?

Hello TerryL,

This will utilize the stock calipers, no need to get "Z51" calipers.

Hello Guys,

I can't give you an exact answer because this is one of many factors that determine your total stopping distance I can however say that it can only improve your stopping distance.

After this kit I would recommend checking out our other sales which seem to be the best bang for your buck handling mod

If not for the any increased braking this kit would STILL be worth it just for aesthetics. The much larger rotors fill out the wheel space very nicely; especially in the rear.

Absolutely! this kit would definitely help with the aesthetics of the car, Especially considering that these are not only larger but also cross drilled
