which brakes are better?

now i have been reading that the 1LE and Baer brakes are approximately the same thing in design.

but can anybody tell me who make the best brake upgrade kit?

i like the baer claw brakes because the brakes/calipers are already mounted to the spindle when you recieve them.

i have also read an article in car craft where they put the baer claw brakes on their car, and they pulled almost if not a G in deceleration forces. this sounds impressive for me. also the baer claw brakes offer larger rotors.

what about SSBC? or many of the other companies out there.

thanks

andrew

BEST? IE: Money not an object...

Go with Baer without question. I'm sure SSBC are good, but Baer is the cat's ***.

Spohn is also offering the 1LE kit already assembled so you can look into that and save yourself about $400. I just did the 1LEs and they are indeed all they're cracked up to be. I'd go this route.

Look here:
