Re: Who makes bigger front discs?

We may have a bolt on kit that uses c5 or c6 calipers and rotors in a few months if you guys are willing to spend around $1200 for a kit that all you have to do is modify your spindles so you can bolt the bracket for the caliper. This will involve cutting the origianl caliper mount off each spindle and bolting on a bracket, you will get a custom hub that is designed to fit a 72 down disc brake spindle with a 5 on 5 bolt pattern and the trac width will not change. You will also get hoses, calipers, rotors drilled for 5 on 5 and you can get up to a 14" rotor for a little more cash. You will also be able to buy pieces seperatly if you wish. This is a maybe and not for sure thing, I am not saying this is going to happen but it kinda falls into my hands or someone else if they want to pay for the first design. What do you guys think about the price? It will be a hell of a lot cheaper than baer of ssbc.
