Brake and Rotor Recommendation

My breaks are just starting to squeak.

I was wondering if you guys had any recommendations for brake pads and rotors.

Looking for a decent cross drilled rotor and brake pads that dont leave that much brake dust.

Thanks
-Mark

Just like the look of the drilled rotor...more interested in brake pads that dont leave all the black dust on my wheels.

Re: Brake and Rotor Recommendation

You might also look at ebc brake pads as well very nice pads,i run the red pads for now, but also have used hawk hps as well.The ebc red pads are as good as the hawk hps pads, but they leave very little dust on you wheels.

Re: Brake and Rotor Recommendation

I just put the Baer Decelarotors & Bullitt/Cobra brakes on my car & love the looks of the drilled/slotted rotors.... I am using the HPS street pads but not enough miles to see much dust yet, I don't think they will be too bad. I pull my rims & wax the surfaces pretty well so any dust mostly just rinses right off.

How well have these rotors held up? Still performing well? Looking nice and shiny?

Re: Brake and Rotor Recommendation

I have EBC Red pads and thier dimpled / slotted rotors on the rear and no dust. I will be putting the same combo on the front shortly. I have hawk pads and powerslot rotors all the way around on my lifted 95 Jeep Wrangler and they are crappy.

Re: Brake and Rotor Recommendation

Yes The Decelarotors are holding up VERY well. No change at all from those pics after a couple more 1000 miles....I really like these Baer Rotors!
