Default Baer big brake kit upgrade

Bit the bullet on the 6 piston setup from Baer for the front and rear

Much more confident and stopping is solid, hunkered down in all 4 corners instead of the heavy forward bias especially in the mountains or when towing

I can't imagine my truck needing 8k worth of brakes. It stops fine. This is coming from someone who upgraded the brakes on a 944s because it needed it.

i upgraded to the ebc green stuff pads, not because there was anything wrong with factory brakes but had them for my old truck and never put them on before i traded it in, but i seem to like the green stuff pads quite a bit. only downfall was the recommended break in period.

Different strokes for different folks, all depends how the vehicle is used and how quickly you start getting fade from the OEMs

Definitely worth it for me
