They do, but the e-brake cable doesn't work.
Which is the problem, aside from the added expense of the rear caliper to the kit. We're trying to make this as affordable as possible, because like you're seeing here, not everyone in the community even thinks a rear upgrade is necessary.
In it's final release the unswept area of the rotor will be machined away.

Ding. Claims are fun, but data rules.
More thermal mass = good. Increased rotating and unsprung mass = bad.
Less dive? Call me skeptical. Better balance? Yeah, that's something I'll totally buy.

I suppose I'd like to see the #'s. It seems like a waste to go through that effort only to keep the same size pads. Granted picking up a leverage effect and some swept area, but with so little of the cars braking power to start with in the rear, is it worthwhile?
