RE: BEST Brakes for 20 inch rims

I bought them directly from Baer and they were $1800 for the front set. And I was wrong about the typo - they are 16" rotors. Which I admit is overkill cause I can't find a skinny anywhere to fit.

Here is a link to the baer dealer locater to choose from. And yes, you can get the calipers in red.

For some reason everyone and his brother like to see the red calipers when looking thru the rim. Never really understood the fascination, but to each their own. [sm=dontgetit.gif]

The baer look awesome with the 16" rotors.

That looks freakin sweet! I hope you don't mind, that second picture is now my desktop[8D] Does anyone think those calipers resemble the C5 Corvette calipers? I think we can attribute the red-brake-craze to more expensive cars equipped with Brembo multipiston calipers (i.e. Porsche and Ferrari). I like red, but I think baby-blue 4 or 6 piston calipers are cooler.
