Uhhh...you get what you pay for, and it doesn't come inexpensively for a reason. I guarantee there's a completely night and day difference between stock and the big brake kits. People are always anxious to add power, but skimp on what it takes to slow it down. Add a trailer to the mix and braking is that much more important.

ANYWAY, couple of questions for Dr. D; are the rotors OK to use with stock pads or do you recommend a specific brand/component to compliment them?

As far as the big brake kits go, I'm pretty sure that 18s are out of the question, but will any of them clear 20s? I have a summer/winter wheel swap issue that I need to contend with. Thanks...
