so im looking for a new front rotor/pad combo and ive narrowed it down between a Rotora rotors with rotora pads or DBA with Hawk pads. has anyone had any experience with DBA? is there any other brands/set-ups that you guys reccomend? im looking to buy asap so any feedback is greatly appreciated
thanks, Bryan

 

EBC green stuff with RacingBrake rotors.

 

how much for a set-up like that? im not wanting to bust the bank cuz im getting new tires too. i think my budget for front brakes is gunna be 300

 

^ well, that cancels out the racingbrake rotors...

go with EBC rotors then.. people get them and say they're not that bad

rodes got R1 rotors.

 

^ check with excelerate..

i think he sells rotora rotors and power Slots as well...

he sells Rotora pads too..

check EBC website to see where you can buy their stuff online.

 

shit..are racingbrakes that much? i wanted to do HID fogs and possibly switchbacks, thats why i didnt want to spend too much on brakes, but im still wanting a decent set-up. theres that new kenitic line but i havent seen any reviews for those

 

^ imo... safety > looks...

before i even got my LE37 on.. i did my racingbrake rotors with legend 2 piston calipers and EBC redstuff pad..

don't want warped rotors causing problems with my LE37s.

switchbacks aren't that much.. neither are HIDs from ebay.. i would definitely put brakes before either of those...

 

yea, i planned on doing that, but didnt want to blow everything on tires and brakes. i could go the cheap route and just get them resurfaced, but my rotors look like shit . thanks for your feedback bro, ill look into the ebc and compare some of the other ones out there

 

don't resurface oem..

its just a waste of money.. they'll just come back and be warped and all that fun stuff...

just go shop around.. get quotes with shipping and all that stuff.

 

cool, ill check out some of the vendors and maybe even see what tire rack has. wish the fresno area had decent shops, id go buy them now lol

 

^ good luck my friend. lol

hope to see you at all-cali.

 

ill be there..its half hour from where i live lol

 

DBA rotors are supposed to be really good rotors. I have Rotora rotors and GreenStuff pads and would highly recommend them. (got them from excelerate)

 

I have Rotora slotted rotors and pads and both have served me well (also got them from excelerate)

 

thanks guys. the dba's i was looking at was the 4000 series wiper slot. not too sure about the rotoras, dont know if i want drilled or slotted

 

slotted is good enough.

 

you can always do both Bryan slotted and drilled yea im browsing for my rotors now too so i know what im getting. I know brake pads are going to EBC rotors probably that ones like rhodes got

 

i found some powerslots at tirerack.com for 80 a piece. they will ship from nevada so shipping was only 13 bucks for 2 day shipping i think

 

yea at my shop its like 250 for all 4 including pads for powerslots

 

thats it? for 4 powerslot rotors with pads? ur shop got a site?

 

no we dont. We order from a warehouse. Check your pm bryan

 

are the brembo ones good?

 

unless you paint the hat, they rust just like stock
