New Brakes & Rims (need some advice)
I'm getting ready get some new rims for my '01 CL and I'd like to do a brake upgrade while i'm at it. My biggest concern is the brakes. The wheels are pretty straight forward but I'm not sure were to start with the brakes. I want to be able to swap the rims for the winter and put my stock ones back on so I can't really go much bigger with the rotors. Anyone know of a kit I can get for some new calipers and rotors. I like the slotted/drilled look on the rotors and I really want some pre-painted calipers. Any ideas or help would be great!

I agree with fuzzy on this one, there really aren't that many options. However, if you can swing the cash, I highly recommend upgrading to a Big Brake Kit. I have Rotora's BBK on my CL and i can still run stock rims w/ a 5mm spacer.

I don't really advertise it much but ROTORA offers a 4 piston mini caliper kit. It it is designed to work with the OE discs and I can give wheel clearances. I usually don't advertise it b/c it runs $1150 shipped and IMO for $200 more you could have larger discs. However it does include a pair of 4 piston mini calipers, SS brake lines for the front, brackets, and ROTORA H2 ceramic pads.

Great, thanks. I did do a little searching and homework before I posted and I couldn't really find anything. I figured where was a better place to see if i just missed it, then to ask here. I'll look into the BBK, but I wasn't expecting to spend that much. Thanks guys.
