well you DO know your brakes are gonna warp sooner or later. and if if it happens after your warranty then your gonna spend a good 500 bucks. do this three times and shit..

Mine was replaced @ 30k and @ 43k they are warrped again.

brembo's are 2300 bucks

I'm in Nova, they're being installed now and i should have it on Tuesday. I did upgrade to ceramic pads for an additional $90, but i didn't need the SS lines so the cost was about the same. I'm also having the SC installed so i wanted maximum braking potential. I'll post after a few days of road testing

Yeah, but by the time i have $1500 to spend on something other than car payments i'll probably need the money for school. I'd love an awesome brake kit, but i just can't afford it.

When someone does get them, try a stock rim on the car. I'm not spending $1400 because a chart says they might fit. For 1400 I know Comptech Headers and Ice Box fit.

I will get them only if they offer a LIFETIME guarantee. Brembo offers a lifetime guarantee if the rotors warp, crack, or fade. Same with the pistons and calipers.

Does Rotora offer the same?

One more thing they say that it will fit a stock CLS rim, 17". Does that mean that these are NOT big brake kits. CT offers a kit that will fir on the stock 17" but that is not a big brake kit.
