I have a 5.5 gen max and changed the rims to the 2011 g37 rims. Since the rims are 19'' i feel like the braking distance is worse. Im planning on changing the rotors to drilled but dont know which ones to get. Is brembo the right choice or is there anything better? thanks for the help.

Braking distance will be worse with heavier wheels.

Drilled are overkill for the street. Slotted or blanks with good pads will help. Personally, I would stay away form Brembo blanks. Mine warped in 10k miles so I switched to Centrics and couldn't be happier.

Hawk HPS pads FTW.

Mother of God, it happens with normal braking or hard braking?

heavy wheels will do that. you wont benefit from drilled rotors whatsoever. as a matter of fact, reduced pad contact due to the holes will reduce your braking power even further. get a BBK or a nice set of pads with good bite (hawk hps, axxis ultimate)

brembo makes quality rotors, you didnt break yours in the proper way.

So is Brembo Slotted a good choice. Is it better than Hawk HPS?

blanks offer the highest ratio of surface area/pad contact. first upgrade your pads

which pads do you recommend?
