Default Great Deal!

So I was looking at brake kits and I came across this. I have never ever seen a price like that for a front and rear kit. I guess all you would need are the pads. I guess the reason they are so cheap is the brand but I am thinking anything is better than the OEM enthusiast brakes.

I don't think you have much control in the pedal compared to larger brake kits. I have had the Brembos and the feel was much more responsive to little changes. The more pistons the more control you have.

I have the OEM enthusiast with stoptech rotors, lines, and hawk pads. I don't feel like there is enough bite at the end when I stop and I feel like I am pushing a switch that is either open or shut. It is hard to go from a superior brake setup to a less one but I needed the money so I traded. Worst mod ever..lol!

If Megan brakes are like the rest of their products, I suspect you'll be taking a step down, even when compared to OEM brakes.

Well I am saying if it is for the front and rear then it is a great deal. If that is just for the front you should definately not buy the kit as like you said you can get a much more concrete companies brake kit like wilwood.

Just thought for front and rear it is a good deal.

I'd rather have OEM than anything from Megan.
