Sounds like you have your brake mounting bracket solution man. Best of luck and keep us posted on the overall price and install procedure of those calipers and the complete kit.

Also, I did see that aluminum material spec in their description. I will reach out to my vendor and see if there is a cost savings via material or machining time by switching from steel to aluminum. If there is, I will dive back into the calculations and see if there is a way to incorporate the material change.
Who said I’m doing brakes Aaron?

I love how all these innovations in price changes have popped up after being critiqued on price and now when proof that the brackets can be done for cheaper it's just an "oh I'll see if I can do that too." And the people who said theyre overpriced are the bad guys here. What a joke. Sound like LMS defenders now.

13.8" rotors are oem size for 2013+
Thats almost a half inch difference.
I thought our fronts were 14" aka ~350mm would be close. Would have to see what tce offers as far as rotors go. I'm not for a caliper upgrade using oem size but sounds like you're correct even quarter inch might be too much a difference but could work also. Hard telling with out actual test

I would really delve deep into the details of the TCE kit. The devil is always in the details....

If there’s more material to accommodate a 15” rotor then milling it down wouldn’t be a problem right. Easier to take away than to add. You are correct Matthew. The super light are different. But if Aaron lowers his price bc of me then I’ll gladly take the blame. So we know now that if you want the areo4/6 get the bracket from TCE.

To be clear, $600 for the hardware and mounting brackets solution for a one of one production run compared to TCE $430. A larger run of 6+ sets was predicted to be $475 shipped, which is not much more and actually close to a big names pricing which justifies that my pricing was indeed competitive even though it was portrayed as the opposite.

BTW, with the TCE brackets, or the whole brake kit, you will need to buy 10mm spacers. So get ready to restud the hubs or get large enough spacers that come with studs. But then you have to worry about wheel fit, and you still have to do "Clearance Grinding" to make them fit. So... technically, Aarons are still better even at his current price.

I'm curious on the restud part. Don't think you'd need to restud for 10mm but I could be wrong or spend fifty bucks on spacers with studs. Even then that's under the assumption your using stock wheels. Just curious how that's $170 worth of difference if that is the case.
