I'd go with Brembo then Baer...forget the third one.

Know what would be even nicer? Having brakes on my truck that:
don't put out 18lbs of dust per week
have adequate stopping power for a 6000lb vehicle
do not need new rotors after just 38000 miles

KC-10 FE out

For what it's worth, Ford puts Brembos on the GT500. I'm sure they could've put any brake on they wanted and probably kept the price down on the car, but IMO they used Brembo due to availability of parts and overall performance.

I'd be willing to bet you'll never see any difference in performance or reliability in all 3....I would go with the one that's the least expensive, but if they all really were the same price.....I'd go with the one that LOOKED the best on my truck....either way, they are going to be a big upgrade from stock.
