massive's website is now online

Nice to see you are in Canada :).

Yup. And all parts are designed and manufactured in Canada, and USA for the Wilwood side. I have been offered to have the CNC done in South Asia, but I refused, as I think that if we buy stuff from there, I doubt they will buy ours.

We will concentrate on brakes and will not manufacture sleeves... For now.

I will concentrate on learning to be a better driver so I will develop a NEED for bigger brakes...for now. Hopefully the 5 lug Massive kit hits the streets at the same time that I do my BBK!

Site really does look great.

Something that might be cool would be a Wiki-like section that lists wheel/spacer/brake fitment on the different body styles.

With the usual disclaimers, of course.

Lee does list 5lug e30 m3 brake kit on the site, or are you thinking of some kind of all-in-one adapter to go from 4lug to 5lug ?

[Massive Lee]

I would rather concentrate on brakes and not address the market of adapters. I do not believe in adapters. Usually just a band-aid on serious problem. What works with cheap Japanese car drivers might not be satisfactory for BMW drivers. Why put a 5 lug wheel on a 4 lug car or vice-versa? I believe in the proper selection of wheel for the proper car.

I am with you on this Lee, Just wanted to understand exactly what we were discussing here... Before your kit became available I (and I am sure many others) was also considering going with a 5lug swap but using m3 bits but now don't have to unless there is a specific wheel that I want to run and it's not available in 4x100 pattern.

anyway, good job with the site !

The Team Dynamic Pro Race 1 works with the race kit. This is heaven's gift to racers.

Site looks really nice. It could do without the intro page. Really unneccessary in todays web world. Get right into the good stuff, one less click for people buying.

Im not sure if your host supports PHP, but I think the contact should be an actualy web form. It is much easier, and also provides the user with more of an idea of what information you want.

Everything else seems really nice. Site looks good on an Apple w/ Safari.

The two pointers are just some things I have picked up along the way about usability and product sites. You want the experience to be quick and easy. No guessing what to do next, because with so many sites offering products the buyer will easily leave if confused or impatient.

I must put up a prop for Lee's Massive Kits. I know my name is trusted as I have been around this community for a LONG time and seen more stuff than most. After looking at MANY brake options, I decided to go for Lee's Massive kit. I purchased the "race" kit, and when the parts were delivered, I was honestly very shocked. From working in the industry, worked at an independent BMW shop, I have seen EVERYBODYs kits, including Tarox, UUC, Ireland, Brembo, StopTech, and plenty of others for all makes and models, I must say that Lee's kit is a serious contender. While most of the others offer great kits, this is an exceptional value for a BBK. It takes a little work to piece it together, it is definately worth the effort. I am looking forward to the Massive rear BBK.

You expressed a good point of view. As a new product/company, I need to secure and get the sympathy from potential buyers, before even going into a sale pitch. It is always good to present yourself first. "Hi, my name is Massive" and have a good first impression. Using a "splash" page allows to introduce yourself, creating a better relation with the potential buyer and clearly express what the product is about. On the first page, I have nothing to sell but my identity and image.

How did people feel when they hit that first page? Did they feel good? Did they have a nice impression about Massive? If the answer is "yes", then the "splash" page has reasons to be there. A sale is only the by-product of trust. Even if I have the best product, but don't get your trust, you will not buy. BTW I have been for 20 years in the advertizing business as a creative and art director. I worked at selling beer, cars and cigarettes. I learned the evil ways at getting into people's trust circle. He, he.

Sir your sentiment is very refreshing and I agree with it 100%

Will the E30 street kit work under the BBS 15" basket weaves?

Also will the booster and master cylinder need changing?

Download the profiles from the website (in .pdf format) to check fit.

Narrow Mount Dynalite calipers are 7mm thinner (on each side) offering more clearance. We now have 3mm spacers (4 and 5 lugs) for $14usd each. 2 required per axle.
