Are they any good? Sounds like a bolt-on affair. And if you just want better brakes but don't plan on using them for all out racing it might be a good buy.


Be kind to dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

All told = about $390 at the low end. I'm not too kken on using an angle grinder to modify the bearing. It would have to be dead nuts or the bearing would wear out pretty quick. I'd take it to a machine shop and have it turned. I like the idea though.

it says in the auction...
Quote:

2 PARKING BRAKE EXTENDERS
2 PARKING BRAKE CABLE MOUNTING BRACKETS


so i'd assume you'll still have a parking brake.

i saw this as well... it would be an option for those that want to fit a smaller wheel but still have rear discs.

Look at the Questions from other members at the bottom of the ebay listing. Item number - 8028204863.

Q: is there any machining required on the rotors to clear the hubs? what size is the hole in the rotor to clear the hub... we're curious if it'll clear a 94 cavalier hub. also, will you give discounts for multiple orders?

A: the rear hub needs to be turned down a little for the rotor to fit, machine shop should be about 20 for the pair, trying to see if my shop will do it.i have used also a 4 1/2 grinder to do it.yes, i will discount

Cheers.
