If you are thinking about a big brake kit, forget it. That will not do you any good.

Good brake pads, good tires, and a sturdy suspension are what you need to improve braking. Also, don't follow the herd and get slotted/drilled rotors. They cost more and actually decrease brake perfomance.

This is all you need to know.

 

invest in better pads, and better tires.

 

Drive on the street at about 50mph...and slam on your brakes. If the wheels lock up immediately, I would suggest getting new tires. If they don't lock-up, get new pads. Axxis Ultimates are a good choice.
