So I've found a set of PBR FPV blue brakes front and rear with disks. says its premium upgrade ?I want to know, if its going to be a decent upgrade to my sh*tty XR6T brakes on my BA.. Mine wobble very very bad, and are terrible at pulling me up.... They are $500.. Is that a good price with hoses, too ? THANK YOU! Edited 13/02/13 12:16 PM by TXR05

I only purchased front calipers and braided lines from race brakes Sydney. They fit under my bf 17's no worries with the 325x32 rotor.
