Re: Good brakes?

all joking aside, have you thought about just getting replacement rotors and hawk pads?

Re: Good brakes?

yea ive read that the blank rotors are better for daily driving (more surface to clamp on) slotted is more for like autox, just buy new oem rotors and like said above some hawk pads

I had Brembo drilled/slotted rotors with EBC Green pads and the rotors were warped terribly...

I now have Brembo blanks and Hawk HPS pads... The car is smooth, stops better, and produces less dust than the old setup...
