Need changing asap, Id like some nice looking rotors (drilled and maybe slotted) and good pads, might go ceramic for pads.. Any suggestions and decent priced?

 

I am in the same boat with my Infiniti EX35. I just purchased Powerstop Cross drilled and slotted rotors with Powerstop Ceramic Pads to go all the way around. They have great reviews and I have never heard bad about them. Im planning on doing the install in the next week or so

 

Hawk Ceramic pads which have very low brake dust and Stoptech rotors. Ran that setup up on my STI with no problems!

 

You say the rotors produce less brake dust as well? I know hawks are great, had them on my m3.

 

You are correct!

 

U must do some hard braking my man, 2012 and already need new brakes

 

I just ordered some brakes and rotors off carid.com EBC rotors and brakes

 

Maybe a year or so ago I bought EBC slotted and dimpled rotors. With EBC redstuff pads. Right off the bat, I noticed improved braking power. To tell you how it felt compared to OEM, I'd say that if my new setup is a 10, the OEM was a 7.5. So, I've enjoyed that extra braking confidence. And they look nice.

However...a year later, I've got a few complaints. I've been dealing with the extra braking noise, and that's always kinda bugged. Worth it for the braking improvement, but still annoying. Also, they're warped now. Not severely, but enough that I pulled the front rotors off and took em to get turned. Little did I know, all the shops around me are telling me they can't turn slotted/drilled rotors. So I had to reinstall and just deal with it.

Next time, I'll be getting regular rotors. And not from EBC. I feel like the braking improvement is probably more due to the better pads than anything else. I've been happy with the redstuff pads. Low dust, and have worked great. Take what you will from my experience. Good luck with your upgrade.

 

I just picked up some EBC rotors and plan to do my brakes soon (this weekend or maybe next week). Going to pair them with Stillen metal matrix pads. I do some spirited driving on windy roads and sometimes up and down the "mountain" so I'm hoping they'll perform well. Wish I saw your review earlier, but well, there's no turning back now

 

40,000 miles and not alot..

 

Got some front premium dimpled and slotted rotors from brake performance, only problem with them is that the black paint on the rotor shoe scuffed off from shipping. Got pictures, PM is you're interested.
