Keep an eye on them for cracking. I had a set of R1's rotors on a former Cobra and they cracked up like crazy and ate pads for breakfast.

I put the Baer 14" front brake kit on my 03 MM about 1200 miles ago. They were a nice improvement over the Bosch orig equipment. As they break in they get better and better. Almost as nice as the Brembo Brakes on my 2013 Dodge Charger SRT8. :bows:

We kept the factory rear breaks. The people at Baer told me they decided not to make rear brakes for the MM since most of the breaking power is supposed to come from the front bakes, which they feel are quite adequate.

Makes sense, if the rear brakes were not weaker than the fronts, how could I step on the brake and gas simultaneously to smoke the rear tires at take-off? :beer:

Ive herd this to lots of times but only with the drilled rotors. Never herd anything with the slotted.

Report back after a day and let us know how much brake dust they give. I'm looking for a set of pads that hardly give out dust(close to any).
