Wheel Spacers and Brakes
Got my wheel spacers and brakes done yesterday. Thanks to all who gave me suggestions on what to go with. I wound up getting my rotors from DRT-Sport ( http://drt-sport.com/search3.php?product=na ) for $145 shipped, and got hawk HPS pads from tire rack for around $75 for front and rear pads (good to have friends who work there).
I wound up going with the 15 MM spacers at Boxpin's suggestion and couldnt be happier with the choice. I think that the 25 MM i was looking at would have been too much.
My initial opinion on the spacers is that they look FANTASTIC, and this is the offset these cars should have come with from the factory. As for the rotors - DRT uses Centric rotors, then cross drills, slots, or cross drills AND slots based on what you want. I went with the slotted rotors and LOVE the way they stop. Also, i have ZERO brake squeal now and no pedal pulsation. I'd recommend this combination to anyone....you are NOT gonna find a set of 4 high quality rotors for this price anywhere else.
