I'm sure it's because of my driving habits.. I'm pretty hard on my brakes.. but yes, my rotors are warped as hell already and my pads are wearing pretty thin. Although, I have put almost 40,000 miles on my car since I last changed them. However, that was last summer.. less than 12 months actually.
Anyway, I currently have Brembo blanks, and Hawk HPS pads.
I need to change them pretty quick as I can't STAND how much my car shakes when I brake from high speeds.
What are your recommendations? I don't really care about brake dust on my rims as I wash my car religiously.. (Usually two or three times a week) I just need something that can put up with a lot of hard braking because I'm too stubborn to change my driving habits.

i'd stick with the set up you have. i don't think 40k is terrible for pad/rotor life if you drive that hard.

Yeah I guess I didn't really think too much about that factor before I posted.
So this setup is a pretty decent for the cost? What's the next step up as far as though products go?

powerslot rotors are a bit more expensive, but i've heard a lot of good things about them. someone, maybe dezod, is running a special, like $209 for a set of powerslot rotors and hawk pads for the front.

I haven't heard of them since I was 12, and my dad was doing the drum brakes on his Ford bronco. I'm not sure what that means.
