Anyone thought of or have converted their stock ES / VR brake package yet?
I have been looking at the K Sport 6-piston and 330mm rotors / plus braided brake lines..
Thoughts?

I have seen on eBay, that for $100 extra, they will paint any colour...
I don't mind the orange.. might just get black!

you'll need the right offset and wheel width to run it anyways

plus they are like 2grand just for the front set, unless you are doing some high speeds and very constant breaking its not worth getting thoes big brakes, you can just get sloted and dimpled ventaleated rotors and a good set of pads, unless your just after the large look of brakes. but still 2grand for only the front set. is alot of money, i got an entire body kit for that much and its about 20 times bigger then brakes.
its to bad baer brakes dont make a kit for the cj theres are actually pretty cheap. they had a set for 700. 330 or 300 rotor, 4pot aluminum caliper braided brake lines, front and back the same price and size. and come painted in various colours from red to gold to whatever. some one make them make a kit lol

Eh, more likely I'd just look at getting hold of a set of VRX brakes; since in my case it'd mostly be a bigger look I'd be going for once I up to 18" wheels.

the company I am dealing with makes 330mm and 355mm... wondering if you can fit the 355mm under the standard VRX/RA wheels?
