The Abbott 308 mm kit is the Viggen front brakes, with an adaptor to make the calipers fit and the 5 lug rotors filled and redrilled to fit the 4 hole 9000, and Abbotts performance pads. The cost of the replacement rotors was one of the things that put me off the kit - it's about $500+ for two front rotors. I dont' know if the Abbott pads accelerate wear of the rotors. But, if you get say 40,000 miles out of a set of rotors, $500 every two years is steep for rotors for most people.
I am about to try using a set of Performance Friction BMW M3 sized pads on the front of my 9000, with stock size rotors and calipers. The M3 pads fit with minor grinding to two back corners. I will keep the board updated.
