Bizarre criticism...

Anyone who is immersing themselves in the nuance of BBK kits will quickly notice that the specs of the standard AP racing (essex) kits defer from SBG or Urge. Both SBG and Urge state very clearly what the specs of their kits are. Not sure what, if anything, they need to say to make it any more clear. You want big bold blinking with something like this on their product pages?: ATTENTION TO DETAIL IS OUR PRIORITY, BUT IT SHOULD BE YOURS TOO. APPRECIATE THE DIFFERENCES IN PRODUCTS YOU ARE LOOKING TO BUY.

Most people don't have the technical knowledge on brakes, shocks, etc. at this level. There isn't much difference between these kits and the off-the-shelf AP kits. Most buyers are more likely to notice the diameter of the rotor than its mass. For that matter it doesn't appear any of the vendor talk about rotor mass or the effectiveness of internal venting system.

Net, these kits are track oriented while the generic kits are more for show.
