I saw those on ebay also....

Hmmm....$5500 brakes, supercharger, or suspension lift and wheels....I'll go with the $5500 brakes!

That's nuts!

I dunno. Big brake kit for my BMW (Brembos) was like $3k for just the FRONT. $5k for a front and rear seems reasonable. Especially since the H3 has a lot more weight than the bimmer.

What concerns me is that the 14" rotor brake kit for my bimmer required a 18" rim, these are 15" rotors, and make no mention of the wheel size. I can't image they will fit on anything less than a 18-20" wheel. Nothing worse than spending five grand on brakes, then having to blow serious $$ for new rims...

The stock H3 brakes are just fine.

My H3 stops on a dime, with stock brakes, I actually thought the stocks brakes were better then any of my past vehicles.

Stock Brakes are better than the average SUV in the market. Itīs not good move to spend 5500 $

I have only had to get on my brakes hard once, and the stopping performance for this size vehicle is excellent and very stable!!!
