Front Brakes and Tie Rods 2010 SS - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I bought a 2010 SS a couple months ago and I have had a wobble on breaking and between mid 55 mph up to 60 mph.

I have determined that I need tie rods and new rotors and pads.

I daily drive my SS and do not plan on racing or doing any autocross etc. I would like to get some upgraded rotors and pads but I wonder if it is even worth it? Is there a site sponsor who has a package deal or maybe someone who has been down this road can post a link to a setup that works well, is affordable for a daily driver. If I am wasting my time with upgrading then just go with A/C delco or is there a better stock alternative?

Thanks!

For daily driving some Camaro experts around here recommend the good ol' OEM pads and rotors; you could get some slotted rotors and more aggressive pads but with the big 4-piston calipers you have, at street speeds they would be overall (unless you can get them cheaper than OEM, then why not!?). If you're wanting to upgrade the brakes at all I'd suggest stainless steel brake lines to start.
