For which car and what about AP Racing?
Alcon are my pick out of the two and get a quote on both as we supply both of them as well and i will see what i can do.
Both brake kits are good but from memory the brake pad selection is pretty narrow where as the AP Racing calipers are covered by most of the racing pad manufacturers. Be careful running rotors that large as we have seen some Fords suffering pad knock off caused by to much flex in the front wheel bearing hubs.
