Well looks asside, if the Bear (which is a well respected name in brakes) front brakes are equal to the AP front brakes, then you would be paying an extra $1400-1500 for bigger rears which contribute little in the stock set up (fronts do most of the work) and probably less if the front brakes are 13". Maybe worth while for a factory Touring cup racer to get that little extra edge. But a street/mild track duty car???????
But, it would look a little better

Yeah, I guess the bottom line is do you NEED that extra (probably 2-5ft) braking power for SO much more money. Or, do you NEED that perfectly balanced brake look (which would be more my worry, as I probaby wouldn't notice the difference in braking) for SO much extra money. I would be very interested to see track runs with the two different sets though (since I can't afford either right now, I'm free from having to worry about deciding)!
