Default Spare brake set? Why not!

Not sure if anyone has seen or posted this but you can't beat the price

Its an upgrade for 05 - 10 'Stangs but for $150 you can't go wrong for the set. you could also take your time and throw some paint on the calipers and add some more customization to your ride.

Wow, that seems like a killer deal. Pretty sure front rotors alone would come close to that price. Is there another bracket needed for these to fit? Or will the caliper just bolt up.

Should be a direct bolt-on. I sent an inquiry to the sales dept and they said it is. I said wth and ordered them anyways. Worst case... I hold on to them for awhile and sell them to someone with an '11-'12 looking to replace their pads and rotors.

They also had these for sale last week.

The auction ended but they didn't sell out. I'm sure they'll be posted back sometime soon. I did inquire about adding these to mine and I don't have the correct factory harness. I would have to run some wires or get REALLY creative...

Excuse my ingnorance, but why would these rotors be an upgrade for the 05-09? Those have 13 inch rotors also, and the calipers look the same.

05-09 have 12.5" disks. The real point of this post is you get calipers, pads, and rotors shipped for $150. The slight upgrade is really not a factor for me. Pads alone will cost what, $80 - $100+ and then add the rotors you're talking somewhere around $300. Buy these now, paint the calipers if that yours thing, add them on when you have to change your pads out.

I can use the front rotors, but I wouldn't need the rest of it. Does anyone know the size of the rotors on a 2010 base V6?

For anyone that may be interested, they also have GT rear rotors for $40! The rear set is just the rotors themselves without the pads and calipers. http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...id=08872985733
