Default Aerospace brakes front and rear installed good info inside 😎

So i finally decided to get around to ordering the front and rear street brake setup from GPI which is the aerospace kit . Brakes came in well packaged and in 2 days from GPI from Ronnie Esmon also got a great deal from him on both sets great company to deal with . My complaints about aerospace is the installation instructions are straight up **** you also have to retap each brake line on the caliper which is sad also you can only shim one way to center the caliper on the rotor . My Mechanic had to use washers to center them right . Also the rear isn’t a true bolt on kit like they claim but whatever . Now on to the good part about the kit weight savings 😎.

Front stock brakes 39.5 lbs a side

Aerospace street brakes are 16.2 lbs a side

Savings up front 46.6lbs

Rear stock brakes 30.64 a side

Aerospace street brakes 15.19 lbs a side

Savings 30.38 lbs

For a total savings of 76.98 lbs which is the same as what I saved on doing a dragpack . Do I think the kit is worth it wheel for me yes but not for the money for the average joe for what they cost instructions should be a lot better and you should not have to retap threads at all .
