agokart, yes it was a crazy issue with the bleeder screws! But I really appreciate the way you handled the issue and I am sure this is a very rare issue.

After a few weeks with the kit, I can say I am totally satisfied with it! The rotors are a little heavy, but they are massive and I am not worried about wrapping them under hard braking.

Props to DT for this BBK at a very good price!!

Thanks!
I freakin LOVE IT! Great stopping power and no noise! Chad stands behind his product as I had an issue with a rotor and he shipped me new ones no questions asked! I would buy it again and again... even thought about replacing my wife's JCW brakes with Chads!

I totally agree with you CARdiac!

Chad is a really nice guy and loves what he does for a living. The BBK is really great too!
