Anybody tried these brakes?



put them on last year and they seem fine. One of the rotors developed grooves almost immediatley, and they have rusted, but there is no vibration and stopping is fine. I actually think they are better than the OEM. It seems every GM rotor I have had (1998 GP, 2001 Alero, and 2006 GP) need new rotors at 20K miles up front. This set of rotors had 20K on it and I have not even thought about changing them.

I am not sure if I got the pads with the set though.
 
GREAT now i know what to get! no to jack the thread but how the braket looks like exactly for the 12'' upgrade?
 
Go into your local parts store and ask for front calipers for a 97 olds intrigue.

There is the JA9 and JB9 brake packages.

One is 11", the other is 12".

They should be semi-loaded (with bracket) so you should be able to tell the difference.
 


Also what color do you guys think the calipers would look good in. I know you yellow is the complimenatary color for purple on the color wheel..but um yellow...yuck.

Still wondering about the brackets...are the ones i posted above the ones i would need? Still wondering about caliper color too? Also, dj, where did you get the "PONTIAC" stickers for the calipers?
 


Thanks for the quick response shawn...ill probably be ordering these within like the next two days or so....my right rear rotor is bad..i can hear it grind everytime i step on the brakes.
 


So what do you think about color?

I think i'm gonna go with silver since any other color just wouldn't seem right..and as Bio put it I cried about yellow lol
