Here you go, sorry it took so long!

hello all,

Sorry it took so long for me to post pic's. The process was pretty painless, once we got the OEM stuff off and got the Brembo stuff on. Here is my two cents worth on the outcome. I noticed a much firmer and solid feel during high speed braking, low and moderate speed brake pressure, pedal feel and deceleration seem unchanged. The clearance inside the front rim is close, very close(less then a poker card in width). The rear is a little better as I'm running 30mm H&R spacers.

Here are the pic's..............

By the way, if anyone is interested. I'm selling my OEM brakes rear pads, rotors and sensors are brand new the fronts are at about 40-50%. Also selling set of style 87 9.5" wheels with Michelin Diamaris 275/40/20 tires used in good condition.

Looks good! Hope you don't get any bumping with that close clearance in front. I haven't seen anyone on this forum with Brembo upgrades on their X. I've seen a lot of other nice mods on here, but not this one.
