Good Questions!!

I have been considering adding the SmallCar rear brake kit to my van, as
well as the SA Big Brake front kit. My question is - if the SA Big Brake
kit for the front is no longer in production, what kit would one use to
upgrade the front brakes to a 15 inch setup?? And are the gains worth
the hassle? Especially if the rotor is the only "Big" item that's different?

Thanks,
