they are just normal AP race spec brakes and not suitable for road use as they have no dust seals and will come with race spec non road legal pads your better buying a brake kit that has been designed for road use

Contact AP I'm sure they'll tell you what brakes are used for MINI Challenge, I contacted KW to find out what suspension was used in MINI Challenge turned out they advertised it in their website.

Right, it is race stuff, they are not any of the KW Variants (1,2,3) they are called KW Club Race coil over. I noticed that AP did not have any "Competition" brake kits for MINI only performance street kits. They did used to run a more streetable Bilstien set up before KW became the Challenge sponser. Look at pics close, looks like they are 2 piece rotors? The calipers look the same as street one but rotors are different and I'm sure pads are NOT street.

Thats becuase AP Racing here in the states is Brake Pros and differ then that of AP Racing products in Europe.
