Brands....

Since my car is about to hit 100k she's going to get a lot of work done. Included in that are new brakes, rotors and tires. Any reccomendation on brands. I will not use a Dunlop tire again. I've had them twice on this car and am convinced that they're crap!

If you have a problem with brake dust turning your wheels black, EBC Green Stuff pads have a lot less dust than stock.

I'll check it out. :kiss: How do you feel about ceramic pads? How about slotted rotors? Not the ones that are drilled out but slotted on the sides.

Look here and run you make/model thru.
R&R in San Suci is one of their drop ship points. They'll call you when the stuff comes in and they'll do the install for you.

Well it'll be hard to trade with those miles. So I'm going to keep it for at least one more year. It's still a nice car. I'm growing up.... it's terrible. Pretty painful too. :sad:

Not really worth the extra money unless you expect some track time (or drive like you're already there). The slots help dissapate the heat generated with repeated hard braking, not something that happens on your drive to work.

But they look cool :yay:

I don't know what I want.... That's why I'm asking for reccomendations. :yay: I just know I don't want Dunlops again. Twice with nothing but problems. :boo:
