^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Exactly what I was going to tell you to look for!

I have not personally dealt with them but it looks like they know what they are doing and the pricing is not bad at all.

My only warning would be that the way the Brembos mount makes them stick out pretty far and it can be sometimes difficult to find wheels that fit over them (without the inner spokes hitting the calipers). That is why I got rid of mine.

You still got your kit or did you sell it? haha

Brembo Big Brake Upgrades
View/Hide options
Powder Coating: No, thanks (Factory Brembo finish, may have small dings/blemishes/scratches)
Rotors: Premium Rotors (Drilled + Slotted) - $125.00
Pads: Standard Pads - $40.00
Decals (only available with powder coating option selected): No Decal
Wheel Spacers (required for OEM Wheels): I don't have OEM wheels or already have spacers
Speed Bleeders (One way Bleeder valves, allows one person system bleeding): No, thanks
Rotor Hat Powder Coating: No, thanks
Brake Fluid: No, thanks
Stainless Steel Brake Lines: StopTech Braided Stainless Steel Brake Lines - $80.00

Also, I'd assume you'd need 20mm spacers to fit them with the OEM wheels, but still.... 695 for a brembo kit is amazing.

Eric (Owner) answered all questions, and knows his stuff. Price is awesome especially considering these are freshly rebuilt! There's eBay listings for used ones that are more than this and can't trust if they're seized or more.

Here's my Fine Print from the other thread where we were talking about them with minor edits:

"
Hyundai Genesis Coupe Front Brembo calipers - any year. The fronts will mount up to the original mounting points without any modifications, but it is recommended to trim the shield slightly. Rotors are Fronts from a Nissan Rogue with 3rd row seating (320mm x 26mm) - any year applicable. Standard Brembo Pads (P54039N) pads, or any aftermarket equivalent that fits the Genesis calipers will work. I am currently running StopTech Sport 309.10010. There is very slight pad overhang at the bottom of the pads because originally they're meant to clamp 340mm rotors.

I also added Mercedes AMG Dot4 fluid because it's effective yet inexpensive, and Goodridge SS Lines meant for the Civic Si will also mate up to the Brembo calipers. Minus the SS Lines at the rear, my pads and rotors are still original with 42k km. I'll change those out for new rotors and Type R pads in the future when needing replacement.

BUT.....the fine print is that wheel fitment becomes a pain because these Calipers are massive. 27won's and other 330mm kits sit higher over the hub as new adapters are included which gives them more clearance from the hub and spokes of the wheels. The Brembo calipers are over an inch wider than stock calipers and same mounting points so you need wheels that are more flat-face for better clearance. I've added pictures of my friend running the same setup on his Si with 18x8.5 +40 RPF1 having plenty of clearance because flat spokes + longer, straight hub. I didn't clear with my Konig Freeform 18x8.5 +35 due to a concave wheel design with a shorter hub, and even adding a 5mm spacer gave me just bare clearance that you see in the picture.

Would these fit with the oem wheels? What kind of spacer would you need to make them fit? I am considering doing this and eventually changing out the wheels once I finish with performance mods. For now oem wheels are decent looking.

Very sorry I missed this, but yes they clear OEM wheels with 20mm spacers. You'll need extended bolts as well, or like I have spacers that mount to the hub, and then wheel bolts onto the spacer. They're fine for winter, but would not recommend for any type of performance setting.

Hi I recently bought 2021 ctr rear calipers and would like to install them on my fk7 hatchback. Does anyone know what rotor will work with both the 305mm CTR caliper brackets and the FK7 hub? Fk7 has 260mm rear rotor and 260mm rear caliper bracket btw.

CTR has larger bolt circle spacing (5x120) and larger hub center. Also the rotor hat is taller than fk7. And the studs are larger on fk8. Can the rotor just be redrilled to 5x114.3 or does the hat height make it unusable. Not even sure if the caliper bracket bolt holes are spaced apart the same on the two cars. Was going to take everything apart to compare but was hoping someone has already done this...
