Re: Brake upgrade recommendations

The other guys already posted the proper fix actions, if you are on a budget
just replace the worn parts, if you want to upgrade for performance reasons
go to the SSBC website. I installed their rear disk upgrade along with
larger front calipers from a Lincoln LSC and it was like driving a whole new
car. We're talking BMW touring coupe like stopping power on a budget.
