nice rotors. i have drilled and slotted rotors from napa on mine. not a huge difference. but there is a difference i could tell. make sure you break them in correctly. it will make them last longer.

I got the whole brake package including ceramic pads shipped to me for $209.00 I was pretty happy about that. Ill make sure and break them in properly. I put the same brand of rotors and pads on my Cadillac and and really liked how they perform. Its definitely going to be a long busy weekend.

I got them from "Brake Motive" through there EBay store. I really like the ones on my car so I'm sure ill like these. They are quiet. The packages weighted over 110 lbs combined so free shipping was great.

Sweet! That sounds like a really good deal. For sure keep us up to date on how they perform.

That would be very expensive to ship. I'm glad it was free shipping.

When I did my brake job, what took the longest was rebuilding the calipers. When I did the brake job I noticed the boots (seal) on some were torn.

3rd strike performance will hook you up with these seals

gl with the job, sometimes a buddy and some brews makes it easier

Brakes are not to bad, may as well pick up some paint and paint the calipers while you are at it if you have not done them already. Thanks for posting the site though, I had it saved for when mine are due but lost it.
