Members and Vendors Brake Question Opptions.


I want to up grade my front and back brakes. I don’t want to take out a second mortgage on my house to pay for them and I want to keep my 17” wheels.

My regular commute is like 16 miles a day all side roads.
I hit the track one or two times a week with four to seven runs each night. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Links would be great aswell.

Thanks Guys

you could get drilled/slotted rotors with new pads, but larger calipers require larger wheels.

as far as I know there are no aftermarker brake kits that will clear the stock 17s. But here some other good stuff:

Pads

Like I said, not that I know of. They all require at least 18s.
