RE: Check out my new brakes! - 1/11/2008 1:54:36 PM    Seabbatical   Posts: 9 Joined: 12/17/2007 From: Marathon Key, FL Status: offline I spent the money on brakes because I tow a boat frequentaly.  I went through a set of rotors and pads within a year of having the boat so I decided to spend a little extra on the brakes.  We'll see how they go.  I have Hawk Ceramic pads which seem to be great.  I have them on a 1998 GT and they rock.  But like you guys said, time to get some mods that make her go faster.  I picked up the Rotors from autowarehouse.com I think.  About $90 / rotor.  The pads I got from tiresdirect.com for about $70.  Case of beer for install (did myself), $17.  All in all not to bad.  Took maybe an hour - hour and a half. _____________________________ 1999 Chevy Blazer 2 Door, 4x4 Power Slot Rotors Hawk Ceramic Brake Pads Tows: 20ft boat "Seabbatical" (in reply to Tippman7641) Post #: 12
