These things are huge.


Anyone ever install a set of these things?

 

you got new calipers right? Or are these stock diameter?

 

No, the EradiSpeed+1 kit comes with new 15" rotors 2" larger than stock, that's 30% more braking power. You have to have at least 20" rims to run them. You run your stock calipers on new caliper mounting brackets and new sleeves with the studs in them. The whole package weights 101 pounds. The pictures may be deceiving, these things are really huge

 

those things are huge

 

Holy crap Batman! That's big right there.

 

Please give a review of these things after you thrash it some. I really want to know if they are worth the money, and if you can really feel a difference. I may go for these when I wear mine out.

 

What I didn't realize and Baer doesn’t advertise well is what you get for your money. I talked with one of the technicians at Baer for a while and found out why it cost so much money compared to other brake rotor replacement kits. The stock rotors that come on our 2004+ F150's are one piece units that include the hub and wheel bearings. To make large, replaceable rotors and make them out of different (better) materials, they needed to be made in a two piece configuration rather than one big piece of cast iron. Because the wheel bearings are not sold separately you will need to press them out of your old hub and into the new Bear unit. Here are some pictures of the whole kit so you can see all that you get for your $600.00 and something dollars.





I won't be installing them for a couple of weeks, but I'll be sure to post my experiences then.

 

so this 600 something. Does it include anything for the back wheels? or is it jus the front?

 

It's just for the front. Here is a photo of the Rotors next to a Nissan to try and give an example of the size of these things, but the photo does not really capture it.

 

Finally got them installed today. Did the rotor seasoning, but have not done a serious test yet. Maybe tomorrow. This is a night picture so I hope to have better pictures if anyone is interested. I really like the way it fills in the gap between disk and rotor that existed before (20" rims).

 

nice... its a shame they're hard to see behind the wheels. Looks good though, let us know how the stopping/pedal feel has changed.

 

Which one do you think works better?

 

I've had cars with tires that small....I bet it will stop on a dime with those rotors

 

Please let us know what you think of braking power with that setup. I've been looking for the same kit for my '01 but can't find it anywhere in stock as Baer discontinued it....

 

Hate to bump an old thread like this, but where's the review on these brakes now that you've had them for a while?


Also, will these things work with the 18" spare that comes with trucks that have 20's?

Thanks
