Finally picked up some brake rotors and pads

[flyromeo3]

Ahhh,...despite not having installed them at least I know its on the way.
Am getting tired of that wet braking feel, you know, when you press down on the pedal and it feels like the car isnt stopping for the initial second or two.

I picked up some powerslot slotted front rotors and PBR ceramic pads.


next stop,...OEM tires for the stockies!
anyone recommend a good inexpensive all-season tire?

205-55-16 in size. I really am p00r right now so the most I want to pay is like 200-250 for all tires.

So far I have found these and would like some input on them

Dunlop GT Qualifier 220 for 4
General Tire - Exclaim UHP - 260 for 4
Hankook Radial K106 - 210 for 4

i actually like the falken Ziex 512's. I used to get them all the time when I had my accord. Hopefully they'll perform on the audi like they did on the accord.

Very nice. I'm thinking of doing some suspension work on my car some time soon. Replacing the current lowered setup with some coilovers and I'd like to do brakes at the same time. How much did the rotors set you back? Let us know how you like them once they are on also =)

I got the rotors from eBay for 105.

the brake pads I got from purems. I believe they were $39.95


When you change to coilovers the ride is going to be a bit firmer. Hopefully the roads out in Kentucky arent as bad as they are in NYC.

I'm going to install them myself but wont have time until next saturday. hopefully I'll get them by then so I can put up the pics.

Not bad prices.

Our roads are alright, I live in Bowling Green so plenty of rural roads which are for the most part ok. I think I will be pleased with the ride though, a good friend of mine had a 1991 MR2 with a JDM swap and some serious coilovers and his ride wasn't to bad even on the back roads.

Is there a Honda dealer near you?

When I was working for Honda we put a LOT of HFP wheels on the new Civics, the factory take off tires were 205/55R16 (or in other words, exact fit), we were selling sets of 4 tires w/ <100 miles on them for $210.

Worth a shot, they're Goodyear Eagle RS-A's, they ride nice and wear decent.
