There's a lot of R&D that goes into these wheels to make them fit on these cars with factory brakes. Other brands require to switch to V6 brakes and maybe you guys aren't familiar with how everyone got the Prostarts and Draglites to fit the 4th Gen cars. It took a lot of grinding material off the caliper. None of which is required with these wheels. These aren't a $10,000 f-body we are talking about here. You're talking about a $30,000+ vehicles. In a perfect world everything would be free. But to get a quality part that fits and takes the abuse these wheels will, you get what you pay for. Performance cars aren't cheap...
