Default big brake question

when you go w/ big brake upgrade like 14", and say a 4 or 6 piston caliper, are the brake pads also bigger or same sizeas stock?

I got the FRPP GT500 front brake upgrade kit, M-2300-S. It uses different pads.

I think thekit is good value as it also includes 4 SS lines to replace the flex lines,new rear pads to match the fronts andthe bolts.

I'm in Canada so mine came from Steeda Canada. if you Google M-2300-S brake kit you will get some hits. Unless you are going to pick it up make sure the prices include shipping because it weighs a lot!

In case you were not aware - most big brake kits require 18" wheels and not all 18" wheels fit over all kits.
