Well look out folks, we're in the midst of a Real Racer! Real Racers can confuse issues 15 ways from Sunday because they're Real Racers and You're Not so What do You Know Anyway.

The whole point is to get away from the Baer Stuff. Can't find a Baer Hub on a Sunday, but the local auto parts will have a Hub at 3/4 the price to finish off a weekend.

That has more to do with the fact that your ASedan setup is designed to work with Fox-style spindles and not with SN95 style hubs than it does with any notion that Cobra rotors are wider than "Baer" rotors...you jumped in here chest-a-puffing and have confused the issue with apples and oranges. Your current setup has not a goddamned thing to do with any "Cobra" setup nor does it have anything to do with what most people (e.g., the unwashed, non-Real Racers) would associate with a "Baer" kit because most people couldn't give a rat's ass about trying to meet ASedan rules. The Bser kit most people are aware of (that would be the 13-inch "track" kit) is virtually interchangeable with Cobra front brakes. Period. And FWIW the brakes are good enough to help keep my Non-Real_Racing self within 6 seconds of the ASedan pace at Heartland Park, in a street-driven car with less than ASedan power, on Kumho MX's.

As far as Pads I run the Hawk Blues front and rear. Think I'd take my life in my hands with OTS Pads. Later I'm done.

I hadn't noticed you were a Real Racer when I wrote that but I am aware that more people than you are reading this thread even if you can't get it through your head that my input here has more to do with other victims---I mean readers of your misinformation and bombast than it does with you. But when I said OTS I had Carbotech brakes in mind, the rear Carbotechs I installed on my Baer rear setup would not fit and it was only after I went on a search-and-measure mission that I found the requirements of those pads were rather unique and that Hawk makes a pad specifically for this application.
