BRAKE UPGRADE!!!
Well to add to my NEW Chrome FR500 wheels that are arriving today!!!!
I decided to compliment the wheels with Front and Rear Cross Drilled and Slotted Black Zinc Coated Rotors
Now to add a little bite to my braking I decided to go with the HAWK HPS Front and Rear Brake Pads
AND Finally to top it off I decided to paint my Calipers black with the 2 part G2 Black paint
Overall I am very pleased with my purchases!!! Stopping power should be improved (at least the fading)....and the looks definitely improved!!

Re: BRAKE UPGRADE!!!
Very nice! I have the same setup. YOu'll need to brake those pads in in properly. And they work best when heated up a bit.

Re: BRAKE UPGRADE!!!
Any shop that has a plastic sleve to cover the rotator strap should be able to do it. I think most shops have those these days. I just finished having some work done at Mastercraft tires at 38th and sheridan they charge like 12.50 per tire to mount and balance. I'm taking my car over there in the next couple days to get the rear tires mounted. It's kindov a hole in the wall place but they do quality work.
