which one has better braking performance, greenstuff or hawk, i check out the site for greenstuff and they are around 57$ but at ptuning.com they have hawks for 52 and that include drums too, I am leaning towards hawk since they include the drums
I was going to order the AEM brakepads tonight, maybe I shouldnt? What do yall think?
And rotors- is it worth the money? My dad said unless im doing some heavy braking and riding the brake alot (and I feel brake fade) then I dont need cross-dilled or slotted rotors.
My breaks have been making a funny noise (not loud, more of a vibration) and just an overall bad feeling. I am only at 15,000 miles but who knows.
I do sometimes go on mountain runs and do heavy driving for around 3-4 hours and have an automatic so its all brake, not downshifting.
THANKS

see if somthing is wrong with your brakes, and if there is then replave the rotors. aftermarket rotors should be about the same price as OEM. besides that, plain brembo rotors are supposed to have the best stopping ability and I guess cross drilled is more prone to crack.
just get the pads now and make the car faster witht the other money
