hey, are they for brembo brakes ala S4s? if so id love to take them and see if my shudder is disc related or other.....

I think Willowood brakes (a brand) is better than Brembo brakes or AP brakes...

because Willowood brakes weights only 25% of other brands (you can save alot of weight!!!)

and if you match it with magnesium alloy wheel (also only weight 1/3 of aluminum alloy wheels)
you can end up with a very big weight saving!!

well it was Lotus' choice to put Brembos on my car.. I will have to suffer with them for now..

and not to nit pick, but Magnesium desnity is 2/3 that of Aluminum.. if you can make the wheel of the same geometry...

I worked for 9 years in a magnesium foundry...
