I'm sure the American-based company is trying to 'accidentally' have their brand name confused with a OE parts supplier that no one has ever heard of that makes brakes for Dodge trucks. Hopefully they can nab a few sales when a Dodge Ram owner searches for $200 Daimler brake parts, and accidentally buy an Alliance Nissan Z BBK

I myself have already expressed my respect for such brake brands earlier in this thread:
