They aren't. I asked not one but two local speed shops and both said that the only use you'll get out of them is if you're tracking your car. You get plenty of ventilation to your front brakes by just driving. Think about it, your rear tires have no brake ducts and they do just fine.
True, but I believe that the front brakes provide the majority of the stopping power. The fronts are more important than the rears.

I hope this clears the confusion up for newbies.
That helps a lot! Not a newbie, but still a dummy. I assume the 1st pick is Mtech, and the second pick is M5. If so, I agree that the M5 looks more aggressive.
