Message	by the caliper. I just don't like that look, but as Chip says (and I agree), it's not THAT bad and it is 1/4 the price. I had a full set of "Brembo" knock-offs on my last Z that had about 1/4" of rotor surface that wasn't in contact with the pads. Everytime I washed the car and saw the film of rust, I shook my head in anger that I had to see that behind my nice wheels... *shrug* they were cheap though - so be it, I've learned since [same goes for the Stillen Type III wing :)]. You can see it here: SS SS ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ "You have nothing without your health."

I will not drive like I'm delivering an organ. I will not purposely scare cows. I will not make light of gravity; and I will recognize the speed limits as strict law, and not just ballpark suggestions. Yeah, right!
