Default Spoon brake calipers

Hey guys. The search function is broken. Has anyone here installed the spoon brakes calipers? I'm wondering how did you like the overall feel and was it worth it. Also did it fit with the stock AP1 wheels? Any information would be appreciated!

i believe for them to fit with ap1 wheels, you would need a 5mm spacer, im cant remember. im sure someone with them will chime in. ive been thinking about getting these... GL with you results

1. yes, people here have installed spoon calipers....
2. pedal "feel" was similar to oem, with good modulation but a firmer bite (depending on pads as well).
3. hmm... was it worth it? It's a bit subjective depending your definition of worth.. what are you trying to get out of it? looks? performance? they definitely look good and provide better stopping power than the factory single pots.. I guess it depends on how much you get them for.
4. no, it does not fit the stock ap1 wheels.
