i saw those too man

i was just looking at those,i asked the seller, those are real aem big breake rotors but i dont think you get any pads, its just for the rotors, look below:

Utilizes stock brake pads or can upgrade to AEM High Performance Brake Pads - Sold Separately

but not a bad find i say so

i would buy them if i had an extra 400 bucks plus shipping

good luck with it

CL-

hey! i have 16" stock ... will thoes fit on mine?

You need minimum 17" wheels for the kit. It isnt really that cheap, but the pads not being included makes a difference for sure.

CL-

I see.. =/

thanks tho.

"You need minimum 17" wheels for the kit. It isnt really that cheap, but the pads not being included makes a difference for sure."

No you obviously dont have the kit. They fit in the 16" wheel just fine. Someone sold my friend a kit on here for 220 shipped brand spankin new. They fit just fine and the provide a good deal of bling that he was wanting.

This gives you an idea of clearance with a 17"...they fit just fine behind the stock 16" wheels as well. This is on a 2.2 FYI

I bought the same kit used from a board member and was told it would not fit by AEM, so my bad if it does.

its okay, just didnt want bad information being posted on this glorious site

Alright my mistake, they really aren't that cheap and their effectiveness seems debatable since the calipers and brake pad sizes are the same. That doesn't increase surface area so that shouldn't increase braking ability.

I'd rather just go with Brembo cross-drilled and cadmium plated rotors. Serves the same purpose but 50% cheaper.

After seven posts down this thread I believe can be closed as it has terminated. Nothing left to be added or can be taken out. So as a request to the mods!!

Thanks,
James

i think those brakes are not worth the money cause like athlon said they are too much

i mean bremb are nice but i wish brembo made a bigger brake kit available for the CL/accord V6

anyone have ideas on where to call or who to see about finding a bigger brake kit for the CL

the AEM is nice but you cant lathe them at all and the brembos you can, the slotted brakes i know you can put on the lathe machine and lathe them 2 times but you can not do this with the drilled, slotted are easier and you take a little off at a time

anyone know of a site where they have good prices on kits for the v6?

DIO 87 Prelude

dont get x-drilled...get grooved or slotted...trust me on this...secondly...the kit is worth it because the rotors are grooved and dimpled allowing the gases trapped between the pad and rotor to escape and there is more rotor material to soak up heat.

care to disagree? go ahead

whether it is worth the money, i dont know, but it is worth the design and engineering (if you understand that)
