So I guess what the benefit people are refering to is response...not so much as they are actually helping the truck slow down???

I also considered buying the Alumasports and swapping out the rotors for the Power Slots, but I stuck with the stock size in the rear incase of a flat....and I probably wouldn't notice much of a gain going to the 14s in the rear as they are close to 13 stock anyway......I'll post my results which will should be the end of the week, hopefully.

This is on a Yukon Denali by the way. I would wait for Tbyrne to do his double discount special to get the calipers if you decide, he never seems to have a special on them or the Power Slots.

Let me know when and if you decide to get the calipers. Maybe we could get a GP going?? I mainly went for the SS brake lines b/c I feel more comfortable knowing they are SS rather than rubber that could rupture or freeze and crack etc. Theyre only $100 anyway...
