A BIG THANK YOU!!!

I just wanted to say thanks to all who post on these boards.
You have been helpful over the years.
The search feature has allowed me to completely transform my car's braking system.
Information on these boards allowed me to convert over to 13" C5 front brakes for $464.55, and 12" rear brakes for under $300!!!
To those who have not compared the factory metric front calipers side-by-side with the C5 calipers, the difference in size is astounding! They are HUGE!
Even though the weather has not allowed real testing, I can already highly recommend this swap.

Thanks again to the experts on here!
Merry Christmas!
-Jesse
