Good lord.
Im not sure why you would want to do this since it adds more unsprung weight. Then again I guess it wouldnt really matter unless you want a track car.

I have the front 6 and rear 4 setup from them. I could not see how anyone would possibly want anything more unless it is for track use as these already offer plenty of braking reserve. In fact the wifey will no longer drive the car as she says the brakes are too much for her. But damn, they sure R pretty.

As the largest brake system offered for SUV/Truck applications to date, sequentially sized pistons in the calipers are fine tuned by increasing the clamp load to the optimal level while utilizing the stock master cylinder to retain overall front-to-rear brake bias.

My guess is that these will benefit those escalades with 22" wheels or something.

i think even endless has a 12 pot caliper as well....but yeah...for everyday use 12 pot is BY FAR from practical...I must say tho...must look sweet while the car is in motion...and up close in person
