I scored a good deal on a 5 lug setup off of an early 944. Thinking I should rework the calipers. Does anyone have a really good reason to pay approx $9 and $18 F&R per kit rather than $4 and $7 at Rock auto. Is ATE stuff that much better than Centric?

Probably the same stuff, should include, seal, rubber bellows, and snap ring.

If you do track driving i would pay more for the ate, tried both ate and cheapo brand, and the ate copes with more temp before getting brittle. For Street only i wouldn't care much..
