^^^ This.My stock 11" fronts and 10" backs single caliper stop me on a dime - no weight - no mass to stop. $1900 is a long way to a turbo or a supercharger. I need to go faster to require me to stop faster!!!

They sure look awesome. For $2k I guess they better.I know, I know, I'm the weirdo that's stuck on brakes. I didn't say the Goblin NEEDS it, I posted just in case someone wanted to go down this silly path.
Did you have any trouble bleeding the brakes? I'm on round 3 of bleeding battles. About to go buy a pressure bleeding setup and pump a couple gallons of fluid in through the reservoir and see if that knocks it out.I've been super impressed with the stock brakes. I did put some nice power stop brake carbon ceramic pads on them but ****. This sucker stops.
I'm looking at a local place that makes carbon fiber wheels right now, If the price is right I might be able to shave 50lbs of weight off of the rotating mass! Oh boy.
Nuker-
Hey Jsatx, No problems. I'm using the motive power bleeder, you pump the reservoir up to 10 PSI and open the bleed valves one at a time.Did you have any trouble bleeding the brakes?

I printed these out, thanks for posting!My brakes are to good at 90 mph I have to be careful to use light pressure !
Yes, please! I have been wanting to know this as well.It would be great to see everyone chip in on what rear wheel diameter, tire and offset works for them. Plus, what clearance remains for their selection.
I'm getting ready to prep my parts so this has me curious. Do I need to somehow remove the VSS connectors on the hubs before they will fit? Or will new connector-less hubs be supplied?We use the OEM rear hubs from our donor cobalts as front hubs on our Goblins.
The bolt patterns on the knuckle side are the same for all cobalts. The hubs that have a speed sensor plug will not clear our steering arm.
If someone wants to try using factory ABS and TC they will need steering arms with more clearance.
