BAT kit starts at $450 (base kit - fits 278mm rotors) to $675 including 300mm rotors. These kits use the Billet Dynalite calipers (2.5lbs)
Either of these kits will fit under the stock 16" SVT rims (The latter with ~5mm spacers)
I know none of your kits fit any 16" rims, but how well does your 12.2" kit fit under even 17" rims? The 13" kit would surely would need 18's right???
That eliminates a lot of folks not wanting to have to spend a couple grand on ultralite 17's (& tires) just to upgrade their brakes.
I think you made an outstanding kit. Not knocking the package in anyway!
However since I want to keep my stock 16" rims I am all for a kit (or better yet just brackets) to mount some dynalites in place of the stock calipers. And afterall; Why pay retail if at all possible!
BTW - Does anyone know if the Dynalite calipers use the same SS hose as the stock calipers? The pictures show them the same, but we all know how pictures can be...
