Default Brake upgrade

I was wondering what options I had for brake upgrades that do not require larger wheels. What are the best rotors to get. What else can I do to improve this aspect of performance.

First you should improve your tires and pads. Then if you want youcan upgrade to Legend or NSX calipers and VTEC-sized rotors that will clear 15s.

I have a Vtec(prelude), and my rotors are already screwed up. I was wondering about slotted/cross-drilled.

I've heard blank rotors are best. Supposedly all that other stuff doesn't do that much unless you're braking from 230mph+.

my vote goes to blank rotors from a reputable company. Brembo is one off the top of my head.

Upgrade your pads first, and maybe into look to a set of stickier tires.
