Brake pads/rotors, suggestions-recommendations needed...

My 2000 GLE is in need of some new pads and rotors. I'd like to go with performace ones, instead of the smaller, inferior ones that are stock. Any ideas on which ones are worth it for the performance and cost? I have found these brands on the links below...thanks for the help .orger's

I would suggest Powerslot rotors, OEM pads and Stainless Brake lines. http://www.stillen.com/Sportscars_de...id=2201&page=1

he wants performance, not OEM pads. Stillen is a ripoff. I think u can get SSB lines from automax95 still for around $85

Check out raceconcepts.net ask if they will hook up the old maxima.org discount. I always get my rotors and pads there. They use brembo blanks and will do them however you want (just get slotted). They usually do 2 rotors done however for $100 and 4 for $200. As for pads, I like Axxis Ultimates. Cant remember what they cost but it was reasonable. And they sell SS lines for $75. Stillen sucks...race concepts will sell you a full set of rotors/pads/lines for less than stillen will charge for just the front set.
