Need some help - Brakes
76,000 miles on stock rotors and pads..... i think its time lol
Im looking at buying from R1 concepts and was wondering if anyone who has purchased from them can give me any feedback wether its positive or negative to help me with my purchase.
Also
What is the difference between the eline and the premiums?
Im only looking to get cross drilled
heres the elines
2007 CHEVROLET COBALT Front Brake Rotors - Cross-Drilled ex.62078
heres the premiums
2007 CHEVROLET COBALT Front Brake Rotors - Cross-Drilled px.62078
this would be for both front and rear rotor purchase.
Now for pads...
I was told ceramics would be quieter. do they also offer low brake dust? those are my only two concerns. i dont want a squeeky pad, as well as having to clean my wheels every other day.
Looking at these
2007 CHEVROLET COBALT Front Brake Pads - Posi Quiet Ceramic 105.10280
2007 CHEVROLET COBALT Front Brake Pads - Posi Quiet Extended Wear 106.10280
any and all help is appreciated

The Difference between the Elines and the Premium series:
We offer two different series of rotors for your car. My stage one rotors are my E-line series rotors. Those are the ones that come dipped entirely in silver zinc platting which is a rust protection coating and standard iron cast g3000 metal material like your originals. E-line rotors are the same size diameters as your originals. I also carry a second stage which is the Premium series rotors made with an even stronger iron cast graded metallurgy (g3500) and comes with a black E-coat rust protection coating applied on the center hub and inner vane structure and outer rim of rotor. Premium rotors have better air flow because they are built with a 50/50 center split vane structure design (some also comes curved vane and columned) for efficient air distribution to try to eliminate heat spots. Premium rotors are stronger than the E-lines and also same diameters as originals, direct bolt on. Both series comes with double disc grinding surface which leaves a non-directional finish on the friction surface area for more effective pad-rotor break in. This special finish also provides quieter and smoother stops.

Guys if you are looking for brakes get ahold of Steven from r1. He answered all my questions and gave me a killer deal shipped. Will throw up pics when they arrive. Thanks again!
