I've been looking into getting brakes from Baer. I was looking at the Baer Tracks (13" Rotor) for the front and the Sports (12" Rotor) for the rear w/park.
I used their "Locate a Dealer" thing and was calling all the nearby shops that deal in Baer Brakes and the cheapest I came up with was $899 for the front brakes and $759 for the rear.
Now, are these decent prices? Anywhere I could get them cheaper?
last i was quoted from baer directly was 885 front, 825 rear.

im not positive but i think jim at gravana sells them for a set for like 1600 or 1700, not positive. are you dead set on baer? wilwood makes a nice front brake kit and i think their rears are almost done. karo can get you wilwood
Contact one of the supporting J body companys. I am sure we can all get you a better price than going else where. Just send us an email.
I know Jason and myslef can get them, i dont know if Gravana carries them.

That's why I'm researching before purchasing.
Already overpaid for my wheels by about $500, don't want to do that again.
I paid $1670+shipping for my front/rear combo from Gravana. I think thats about as cheap as their gonna get. If you can actually find cheaper, then more power to you.
i paid 500 for the front direct form baer 13" drilled and slotted....one time thing only cause i work at a dealer.
but 500 is employee price at baer
I'd love rears at that price....no hesitation!...I wish

doesnt matter how much they are....theyre worth every penny youll pay for them,

I think I've shared this info before but will share it again. This is the last that I heard from Wilwood.
At this time there are no eminent plans to produce a rear kit.

Subject: I have a different type of question.
Hello,
I recently purchased a Wilwood brake kit for my 96 Cavalier Z24 and was curious if your
company was planning on a rear disc brake kit for the cavalier. If so, do you have an esimated date of release?
Thank you,
Matthew Scoville
Expensive.....
juicedz4 built his own front setup using Wilwood parts and he paid alot less than that. If you're only in it for the gains, and hopefully not becuase you just want to have brand name stuff, swap to an H body or W body front setup and use the Neon or N body setup in the back.
yea liek i said it was a one time thing....i cant get anymore....
or else i woudl be handing out the hook ups
