dont get me wrong i want to upgrade my brakes to compensate but damn i dont wanna pay $2500 for a good front brake upgrade.i wish baer had a eradispeed +1's or +2's for our cars,i have them on my escalade all around for only $800.
Brembo is twice that.... depending on where you look....
Like HG said... I'm not much for big wheels on anything.... but I do think you picked the right ones for your ride... somehow it doesn't look over the top...

Chrome rims are supposed to be over the top and brembo brakes are expensive, but they look really nice and are better than stock ones

gorillah2,$1900 sounds good,but $500 to install them?ok well lets see its just the fronts and about $80/hour rate(guessing high,most are closer to $65)thats almost 6 1/2 hours.mind you other than bleeding the brakes afterwards its all a simple bolt on.just my .02

as long as you are happy with their work is all that matters.i wouldnt just take my rides to just anyone so piece of mind is worth paying more.

That is true and I rather pay a bit more than going back because my brakes dont work......that is extremely dangerous
