Need Help Upgrading The Brakes On 07 TL-S

Alright guys , which front rotors and pads do you think i should get to replace the stockies but will be compatible with the brembo calibers ???? I've looked at StopTech - sportstop cross drill and slotted rotors but they are 12.32 in in diameter when the stockies are 12.2.in. so will that 0.12 in make a difference ?? please help me out here guys ....

Racing Brake Rotors (either 1 or 2 peice) with ET300 or ET500 pads;

StopTech slotted OE Replacements with RB ET Series pads;

Rotora (Slotted, Drilled or Combo) with Rotora Pads.


I've run the RB Rotor and Pad on the '02 TL-S and the StopTech with ET500 on the '07 TL-S. Both are good.

There is a direct replacment OE sized rotor from StopTech.

For any of these combinations check with Vendors MrHeelToe (Marcus at www.heeltoeautomotive.com) and Excelerate (Josh at www.excelerateperforamce.com).

If you decide to go with Rotora rotors I recommend sticking with Rotora H2 pads.
If you do a search youll see that Hawk pads have not been working out to well for many. but it's your choice
