Impending Brake Upgrade...Need Suggestions!
I can feel my microscopic stock rotors are warped - i can feel it in the brake pedal and in the steering wheel when I slow down...like the brakes grip more at a certain point in the wheel's revolution. I might have a little bit of time depending on how worn down the pads are.
So, if i've got to replace the rotors, i may as well go big, baby! Problem is, I've got 15" honda rims ('03 si) and need a good kit that will fit inside.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

sometimes depending on HOW warped your rotors are you can just have them resufaced. I upgraded to brembo cross drilled/ slotted rotors and went with VGX pads, works with stock calipers and stock setup.
Check to see if you can get your rotors turned (if they're within the service limit). You may not need to drop the money on a new set of rotors yet.
Also, before you think about increasing rotor size, try a fresh set of pads and fluid. You'd be amazed at how much a decent set of pads and fresh fluid will tighten up your brake system. Don't always go for the bigger solution.
