13" Baer brakes or 13" Cobra's with Powerslot Rotors? I already have both. Wondering which is better, if any difference exists.


Car #1, the rotors need to be turned.

The Baer and the PBR cobra brakes seem to be the same design. So i would think go with which one you like better. The Powerslot rotors do make a difference though.

I always thought the baers were better because most of the time they're a but pricier. Are you going to sell the other set? If they're the same, sell the ones that you can get more money out of

I have each set up installed on both cars I have, one car has a wrecked front end and trying to decide if I'll part it out.

Both seem to be PBR calipers, just don't have the cars together to compare. I'm thinking just different rotors with the name Baer bringing the premium $$. Hoping that someone can enlighten me.

The calipers are the same, and so is the setup. Baer charges more money, because they stick their name on it.

I was under the belief that the BAER calipers were basically the "aftermarket version" of the Cobra calipers. Having talked to people who own both, they seem to be virtually identical as far as stopping power and quality.
