it just uses brackets to move the stock calipers out further to clear the larger rotors. You wouldn't even need to bleed the brakes. be sure they will clear your wheels :thumb:

performance wise, it's the same caliper so it's not going to clamp any harder. The larger dia. rotor might dissipate heat better than the stock rotor.

If you're looking for better stopping power, upgrade to SS lines instead of the stock rubber ones and upgrade to a larger 4 piston caliper and larger rotors.
