i went for black because my car is anthracite and red doesn't look that match

only wilwood and brembo offers black

if i want red i could have just got the rotora instead, they are 100 cheaper than i bought for

Holy CRAP that's nice! Of course you know you must post pics when you're done! They look huge, I hope they fit in your wheels (the 5mm spacer for the depth but what about the overall diameter with the caliper?). You know you're gonna be the answer man on this one!

Good luck!!!!!

why i am lucky? i have to pay for those...@_@

they are about 1400US shipped together, while the rotora kit is 1300US shipped, i decided to go for wilwood coz of the black calipers

with a 5mm spacers they will fit into the CLS/TLS wheels, my wheels are TSX but i measured they are pretty the same diameter inside round....so i hope it will be ok

I didn't have any trouble bringing those in, and even if they searched my trunk and questioned me, I would've just told the Customs agents that they were for track use and the Rotoras on my car were for street use.

Now bringing the tires in for you, I was shitting my pants because they were sitting in the backseat.

Good luck with the installation and I hope everything works out.
