Default Brakes and Rotors.

Im in need of new Brakes and Rotors and wanted to upgrade from OEM. Just wanted to get some feedback and see what people like and dislike if you have aftermarket ones, and the price. Thanks.

Im running Rotora rotors and Hawk HPS pads with Goodrich SS lines. This set up works great for me, good bite and great pedal feel. From what I understand though the stock rotors work very well, just upgrade your pads and lines.

The stock rotors are better then most after market ones. Give John at

Forged a call he can steer you in the right direction. He loves to talk

about brake pads and he knows what work the best on and off the track.

in order of availability on $$!

hawk hps plus, powerslot rotors, earl's brake lines, spoon calipers

they say money doesnt grow on trees

but that will be my balance between street/track.

OEM is just fine for the street.

Track, better pads and fluid is all you need.
