Yes and the calipers stay cooler, and can apply more

I did not know this, i might buy them.....i need all
the stopping power i can get for my beast. I did not
know that i will need newer spindles....this changes
my total costs, especially if i buy new parts.  and
brings me closer to the price of the SA big brake kit
which is very tempting now.
