Help w/ brake upgrades please.....
I'm looking to upgrade the braking system on my soon-to-be supercharged CL-S. I don't want to drop an outrageous amt. of $$$ on a big brake kit, I was thinking new pads, rotors, and the SS braided brake lines. I don't want the pads to give off tons of dust. As for the rotors, slotted, drilled, dimpled? Which are the pros/cons of each? Can you guys point me to some recommended brands? I'd appreciate the help.
