They are new.......they are 11" and they come ready to install ....all the cables and blah blah.........but i can also get 13" ones for like 400 dollars more.......do you think it would be worth the extra 400?

Wilwood makes some killa stuff...but if you don't have 500hp whats the need...sure they look hella sweet but are the looks worth 700 bills?

well..........idk......but its pretty cheap for wilwood and i think it would be worth it...rather than spend 500 on a iffy brand.....when i can drop 200 more into a really good brand
