They are, these will stop no better than the stockers. I'd bet you money on that. But my True Forged wheels have the "big brake cut" on the front wheels leaving a large gap for big brakes and it doesn't look right at the moment. You would never notice that with the same wheels most people run (rtr's, forgestar, avante gardes etc). Around a track, the stockers would definetely fade sooner, but on a street car you'd never notice a difference.

Kevin and I have the same wheels and you can see how much better it looks with the rotor filling the wheels that you can see through.

And here very soon, my car will be making quite abit more power too.

My point was with your car, you shouldn't let a car not having Brembos being a deal breaker for you because you can always add better brakes later and not pay interest on them for the duration of your loan. It's not all that important for a street car to have Brembos unless you are going to go out and track your car right away, otherwise the stock brakes will suffice.

Looks good, I can't stand the way the small rotors look behind these big wheels.

I'm pretty sure they proved the Brembo package stops much sooner than the other stock brakes...
