[urq] Brake job : best setup for the street ?

[Brandon Rogers]

A year or two ago I contacted several custom wheel manufactureres about 
doing a run of forged 16 X 8 replicas of the 15 X 8's.  It was going to be 
very expensive...Like $20,000 setup alone, including some safety testing 
yada yada yada ...

If I win Powerball I'm in regardless of cost...until then.....well I'm going 
to need to work a little harder....
