2010 SS but looking to do non Brembo rotors/brakes - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So, I am hesitant on spending $1000 just on Brembo rotors when I can go with R1 and do rotors AND brakes for almost half that. Anyone abandon Brembo when doing new brakes/rotors on their SS? Any recommendations? Looking at R1 Concepts for rotors and Hawk for pads.

I did Power Stop 1-Click Street Warrior Z26 Brake Kit and Stop Tech SS lines from Steve at RDP, great price, very happy with set up.

Where are you shopping where oem rotors cost 1k?

Tire Rack.... a pair is $450 so I rounded up plus cost of the brakes. If you have a cheaper source for Brembo I'll take a look there but everything I find it'll cost over $1k for a complete brake job.

Uh, my 4 OEM rotors and brake pads were ~ $640 with shipping from GM Parts Direct. You sure you weren't looking at some fancy upgraded rotors?

You can find em for under $100 ea. @ GM Parts House.
