I cant afford brembos.

I shant however, be buying "stick on" rip offs, as surely the point of buying brembo's to make your car stop quicker


Well, if one comes loose and sticks in your spokes, mabe thatd slow it down..

Looking at those picks and they do look like real ones not the covers.
I think the top one is a Subaru back and the other one is front.
Got some at work and the stock brakes (not gone for the upgrade) do look about that size
