U will never fully utilize those brakes on the street. They will never heat up like they would on a road course or auto x course.
Oh im sorry, I would go with the girodisc. Cheaper and they r not *****!

Well looks like I am gonna do ams wildwood front kit and the girodisc ultralight rear rotors, so I can keep my e-brake. I got a good deal on the wildwood kit that I couldnt pass up. I plan on sending the calipers off and having them powdercoated the brembo red to mach my rear calipers. I dont think this is gonna upset the brake balance on the car since these brakes are have stopped our cars in the 1/4@160mph with no problems. I dont plan on xing the car so I shouldnt have issues with overheating or warping.
Overall the rotational weight I will be cutting with this combo is around 33lbs, and I have the option of running 15inch rims for drag racing, while keeping my e-brake Now add lightweight rims and tires that I am looking at take off 36lbs of rotational weight from my current wheel/tire setup(stock enkeis with falken tires) on top of the the AWD driveshaft I already installed (12lbs off from stock) that is 81lbs of rotational weight total off my driveline. Car should feel pretty good
