Speedquest is a combination of a tuner shop in Cali and one of the top tuners from Drivers Image. The created Speedquest. Keep in mind that the Stoptech kit isnt just rotors, they are fully balanced, complete brake kits, with mounting brackets, pads, calipers etc....

The six piston set is smaller pistons, I choose Stoptech becuase of the history with them and the faith in their products.
