So I just picked up the car with all of the "new" installed. Went out on a country road and did the "Bedding in" of the pads. What a difference vs. stock! Stops like a banshee now...without even going into anti-lock...dont think I'll ever NEED to go into anti lock! Anyway, brought them up to temp with a couple of 60 - 45 gentle stops and then 10 hard stops from 60-10 just short of antilock. I could definately smell the pads bedding in about the 6th stop and the peddle getting a bit softer. Finished the tenth time and drove around without hitting the brakes much for another 15 minutes. Parked the car and took a look....nice ring there where the brake pad material is now adhering to the face of the rotors. I cant believe the difference...even doing the stops without the pads fully bedded it simply blows away the stockers! If any of you guys can swing it....I most assuredly recommend the Rotora BBK!

That sounds like my next mod, I just need wheels that clear them... what kind of offset do I need for some 17" wheels to clear the rotora kit?


thanks,
