I have an opinion but Im not sure its correct.
I think wilwood used to be more track oriented. Meaning the brakes they offered were kinda like a custom fit for the buyer or a bolt up for the common racing applications. Not very street user oriented.
Things have changed at wilwood. They offer hubs and brackets for a very large variety of cars now. The hub selection is pretty large. Their web site is a lil difficult to get to the hub listings. But its there. And they have a large PDF library of all the hubs, brackets, and calipers with great diagrams.
Baer has always produced great products. But their line is more purpose suited to specific cars. Im not sure they have as much of a mix and match system.
Both companies produce really nice products. But for a hot rodder there might be a lil more available with wilwood. I think their hub line makes it easier for a guy building up a brake system. Sometime you can mix and match hubs and bearings to make a fitment for a specific spindle. And the brackets are the easy part. JR
