Re: Just STOP IT!

You hit the nail right on the head! These make a HUGE difference when towing. I drove an EXT with the 12 piston set up on it and pulled a trailer without any issues. Not only did it not feel like there was anything behind me, but it stopped effortlessly. Unlike the 08 GMC 3500 dullie when towing, I didnt have to use the trailer brake assist on the Escalade. The dullie I would have to... Great brakes and certainly a must for those that use it for towing.

Thanks,

Sure some guys would like these because they look cool but that's not to say that other people like myself wouldn't want them for a "legitimate" reason, which is my case is towing. (I'm not aware of anyone autocrossing an Escalade, but I could be wrong...) That being said anyone who drives their Escalade like it's an E55/S55 is an idiot...
