Nothing wrong with these brakes. From the reviews Ive read on the Alliance brakes Ive only heard good things.

Would like to know what pads these use so I can source replacements or different compounds.

If you have any specs on these brakes that would be great if you could post it up :) Even if it's msrp pricing, applications ect. I guess just don't post a link where you can purchase them.

You think it would have helped if you got a different material bleeder? Cuz aluminum shouldn't rust(assuming the calipers are.)

the calipers were fine just the bleeder. The guy selling the alliance over at my350z said they will send out zinc coated ones but they lagged big time. I just told him to send me regular ones. Then I sold the brakes

Its just for looks since its very heavy. Here my car with it on

My 19's didn't fit. I had Junction produce scaras and they would barely hit, even with a 5mm spacer. maybe I should've tried a 10mm
