So would these R1 Concepts pieces fit behind the OEM RT wheels? Or would they still require the wider SRT wheels?

He said that these were going to be able to fit the stock wheels
 
I see that now in post 5. I missed that on my first read. Thanks!
 
According to r1 there fitament is for 2010+ durango stock wheels.
I told them to double check for 2011-15 fitament. This is the hold on right now.
When I went to sema I saw r1 products up close and I can say they are top notch product that most people have never heard of.
Crossing my fingers on this one.

Consider you must buy new rims and tires if you go the oem route this kit might work for you
This is everything to front and rear big brake kit to giant brake kit.
He also told me the 356mm min rim size is 18 in so limited and sxt guys have a option they never had be for with there oem rims
 
ok... but I retract my statement on being interested in a group buy....

is it just me or are those prices absolutely ASTRONOMICAL!!!

Oem srt calipers on eBay cheapest I ve found them 1200 with pads still need rotors price ?
rims and tire? Your gonna be over 1k for that prob closer to 2k with good tires
 
Those prices look realistic. However I got takeoff brembos for $400 and really good condition spider monkey rims and tires 300 miles on them for about 3K before selling my stickers. Figure 400 for rotors and I'm going to be 2500-2800 in and have brembos an 20x10 forged wheels. Still about $1000 more dollars to go this route but if you like stock wheels it works out close at least.

I don't doubt you got a good deal but it's not typical for the average person. They will have to wait.
I know cuz I'm one of them. I guess eBay caught on and the prices have stayed up there for the cailpers

Also the the prices in there are for 8 piston calipers with much larger rotors then Brembos
Does the srt rotors have aluminum centers for weight savings ?
 
Not for a well designed, high quality, massive brake upgrade kit. Nope....that's about what I would have expected.

DAMN!! I had no idea!
 
DAMN!! I had no idea!
You gonna pay to play, I'm pretty sure this set up with be much lighter them oem brakes .
I held there 8 piston caliper at sema and was amazed by how light for the size.
Compared to a evo brembo I held there 8 piston is lighter.
 
So the question is ....... How many miles should I expect to get on a set of pads and rotors? I have almost 40k on original OEM set and should really get about 80K.
 
I did my Brembos and rotors for under $1000 just had to do some creative purchasing.
 
20x9" SRT reps $800 use the stock 265/50/20 tires.

I found 3 of the Bremobs as rebuilt Centric parts loaded with Centric semi metallic brake pads. Rears were $100 each, passenger front rebuilt with pads $200, Drivers front new @ dodge $340.

Then I was able to purchase the matching front pad since oem brembo is just caliper, also hours of searching to find hardware parts that are out there for pennies after people telling me they are not. The calipers are the same as ones on Caddy's Nappa sells a very important bolt i needed for $6.00 and complete hardware kits for $20 . i bought all spares once i found them.

How were you able to get the calipers so cheap? I just threw one of those part #'s in my google machine and almost nobody had them but they all had them listed with the price and then a $100+ core deposit. How and where did you get yours without having to pay a core deposit?
