I need new rotors and pads
I know this has probably been asked before but I can't seem to find any information on these specifically. Does anyone have these brakes?
Power Stop K5603-26 1-Click Street Warrior Z26 Brake Kit https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B0C1SJ4..._m6LuzbRAHYPWH I know everyone recommends hawk pads and R1 concept rotors but I'm not tracking my car besides hitting the drag strip a few times and think they may be overkill. Let me know what you think or if you know of any good alternatives. Thanks! Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk |

Hello,
I just installed this set up a couple weeks ago, I am very happy so far, easy bed in process and MUCH less dust. Only issue I had was that they sent the incorrect front pads in the set and I had to wait for replacements. The kit however IMO is very good.

I just got the Eline drilled/slotted rotors in black. I went with the Hawk Performance Ceramic pads and an AC Delco hardware kit. Everything added up to about $520 shipped. Cant wait to install, but am waiting on my powder coated calipers from TPH. Also, I don't think Hawk PC's are recommended for the track. Ceramic heats up too quick then potentially could be dangerous. I too am not planning on tracking my car.

I have the Powerstop kit. Very easy to do yourself and so far no complaints. Only had them on for a month or so.

I installed that same powerstop kit on a buddies srt8. We also bled all corners. He says that the brakes don't stop as good as the factory setup did. Says they dont feel as confident. Just some input.

Give them some time... Mine were a little soft at first also... They seem to get better each time out.

Or.....to make things easier. ..you could just replace with the factory stuff. If you haven't noticed, they're pretty good. I'm just saying.
