Why not just get rid of them anyway?

They do, even with the roller skates they squeal bad

Seems like everybody is getting new brakes and such. After talking to a guy from SS performance down here, I just have to get some brackets for my car to make the Zo6 brakes work since its a popular conversion. Can't wait

Just placed an order for R1 cross drilled slotted rotors (SS front & V6 rear), Hawk HPS pads (SS front & V6 rear) and ATE Super Blue Racing Brake Fluid. Can't wait to get it in, hopefully I'll have it by next week!

I was only looking into getting new pads but then I saw the R1 concept rotors (at reduced price) and before I knew it I bought them

btw, anyone know the weight different between OEM and R1 Concept rotors?
