"The vented vane rotor is 11.75” in diameter (stock is 12.75”)"
I know it's nice that the calipers are being upgraded, but I find it somewhat humorous that our "big" brake kit is actually shrinking in terms of rotor size  Oh well, I'm sure it will be more than made up for in terms of performance of calipers and stainless brake lines.

Pretty lame, same thing with the fitment notes listing 15(!)x7(!!) wheels as "known to fit" Who in their right mind would downgrade brakes and wheels to run these besudes full blown rally racers?

It all depends on whether you want a BBK for looks or for function.
For me it's more looks (our stock brakes are tiny compared to the rims) so I will continue waiting...

just noticed the discrepancy from the blog and what was posted on the for sale bit - on the blog, the stock was 12.75" and on the for sale section, it states the stock is only 11.6"

I'm sure the guys from AMS know that Evo X wheels don't fit our Ralliart without rolling the fenders, so why those would be used as a basis for "fitting" the RA, I have no clue. Sure, you can buy wider wheels, but ultimately, the important fitting measurement is offset, right? What kind of offset are we going to need to use to clear the larger calipers? Seems like it would be nice to have a template of what wheel size/offset we will need, as this would be a rather expensive trial and error purchase.

way over priced for a willwood set. Honestly its a complete joke to hit the market with something like this at a price like that. Might as well not be available. You can get this kit for many other applications for 7-900$.. 1400$ what a joke.

Yup, It is a bit much but some AMS sackriders will pay up for it.
Good god, How can people afford to shop with these people? I have pretty much stopped doing business with them about 4 years ago when the prices started going higher and higher  Don't get me wrong they make some nice stuff and do some good work but just wow!!
