AP racing is an excellent company. We ran AP brakes back in the 90's in the IMSA 993 3.8 RSR race car running GT3 class.
Outrageous results especially in endurance racing. We also ran AP brake fluid.
We never had a brake issue.

Will they make a 405 mm (16") rotor application for the front?

I beleive this is it. But these are BIG brakes when you hold them infront of you. You can never get too good brakes, question si if they are heavier than stock brakes?
