WP Pro Big Brake system summer show time on sell

8 pots and 12.44" rotors and stainless steel brake lines. The WP Pro company got a summer show time on sell, only $2386USD Anyone interesting, just post on it, maybe can do the group deal then it will be more discount. This big brake only fit 17"+ rims.

8-piston calipers seems overkill, especially with only a 12.5" rotor. You can get the lower priced 13" Stillen kit for less and almost the higher priced (2-piece rotor) for almost the same $.

What brand are the components? Are the rotors 1 or 2 piece? Drilled/Slotted? etc....

you don't need a new master cylinder for those brakes. The rotor is 2 piece. If you interesting post your e-mail, then I can send the pic to you.

unless you swap out the master cylinder it does seem overkill to have 8 piston calipers on 12.44s on our cars... the brakes will work, probably work excellent but no better than the Stillen/APs- our stock master brake cylinder is already taxed with the APs!

Could you post pictures?

hmm...im just wondering how far the pedal needs to be pushed..or how mushy it'll be. Hmm...8piston..thats like windshield hitting whiplash if you have enough traction.

It's ridiculous. Your tires don't have enough traction to take advantage of brakes like that. I doubt they even exist.
