New Brakes... PICS
I recieved my R1 Concept rotors and Hawk HPS pads yesterday and installed them today. and Damn they look good. Quality is amazing and they are the best bang for your buck brakes around IMO. Install time for all 4 rotors, pads, and G2 paint was approx 2 1/2 hrs, And i took my sweet as time. A big Thx to Steve From R1. Tell me what you guys think

its like night and day. i have yet to do hard stopping, i just did the break in. but i can already tell the diffrence. plus i had absolutly no pad left on my rear brakes before so it was metal to metal
but it does stop much better than it did stock

Looks good! I went with the drilled and slotted w/ hps pads, and I'll agree that the stopping power is significantly improved over stock. The only gripe I have is with the rust that forms on the rear rotor between the black part and where the pads touch.
