Yep, I just put ST40's on my car and they were just under that with some bargain hunting help from CSG.

They clear the 949 17x9 +48. I printed the template quite a while ago to check. I'm not sure about the 17x10 +52.

yes, I mentioned it earlier in this thread..

You should be able to find them even cheaper ($1500-1550) **all day, every day**
That includes the slotted rotors, calipers, brake lines, and stoptech 'street performance' pads

I know various people that have bought the stoptech bbk up here locally over the last 2 years and the price has always been the same

UPDATE:

So I pulled my bumper off this weekend, and noticed that my passenger side brake duct was not attached!! The hose was disconnected from the front duct and so zero air was getting through there.

Anyway, that certainly seems to at least partially address my uneven pad wear of:

Summary -- Pad Life Remaining (mm) after six track days (stock is ~15.5mm):
Passenger (Inside/Outside): 4.9/6.1
Driver (Inside/Outside): 8.6/6.5
It's also an interesting (an completely unintended ) comparison of brake ducts vs no brake ducts...

To reiterate, the driver's side (with ducting) inside pad still has more than half (55%) it's starting pad remaining, and the outside pad has 42% of starting pad life remaining.

not really. you adjust based on market demand, competition and your margins.
that i know of, they are still the cheapest list price. you can probably get it cheaper if you talk to people to work a deal, but as far as listings, that's about as cheap as they come. it's definitely way cheaper than evasive's $2k list price.
