Decisions, decisions...I would rather them not dust excessively, but stopping is more important than that and I'm going to get black wheels anyway...

Mobil is a cheaper option with some good results.

i want to change my pads as well. I need new ones for the back. In the front i put ALBANY pads cuase they were cheap and i can have them as back up when i dont $60 to buy better material pads



Im going to get powerslot rotors and am debating on the pads



I do mostly stop and go city driving and occassional speeding at night over 110mph so any recommendations would be goood

i am running some x drilled/slotted rotors and some AXXIS ceramic/kevlar pads



some douchebag brake checked me at around 95 mph on 87 once, brought the car down to like 50 before i knew what happened



they are a little noisy, but they work great

This will be a strictly "kick domestic ***" car and I plan to autocross for fun at some point...but definitely NOT a DD in any sense.
