D2 Big Brake Kit

Hey guys. Long time no post, but just wanted to share. Recently I went up to D2 Racing to get their big brake kit installed. I'm a sponsored vehicle and they needed to test these out for fitment. Do I need them? No. But I couldn't turn down the opportunity to get these. Here are some pics of the brakes.

At the D2 warehouse.

Sweetness.

What are the specs on the brake rotors, piston numbers, minimum wheel diameter, etc.?

Edit: Found out piston numbers (6 pistons), its clearly printed on the caliper. LOL

I've converted the rear to disc already using the T1R kit.

Wow that looks sweet. Seeing as how D2 is sponsoring you, I'm guessing you have the D2 RS coil overs. How are they? I'm looking for lower height but soft as possible ride. I sell car parts and the wholesaler I deal with has a big D2 account so I'm thinking about ordering a set for myself

Yes I have the D2 coil overs. I've had them for 5 years. Never a problem with them. I've driven from South Carolina to NY, to Miami and Nashville. Not a single problem. I think you'll like them. Good value

Those brakes are beautiful, I'm jealous.
