Default Since you'll take forever to decide, how about I give you a set of stock pads with @ 50% left on em?

It would suck if you died. You can pick them up if you want em. No wear sensors though.

Default Stock Size options...

Stoptech Stage 2 kit.

Or...

Rotors: ECS Slotted Rotors or DBA Club Spec Rotors.

Pads: Hawk HP, Carbotech Bobcats, not quite sure...

Or...

Something else I have considered yet.

Default consider the Porterfield R4S too...

fwiw, I hated the Hawk HPS in my stoptechs, really liked PBR ceramics in the stock caliper for a relatively cheap street pad, but I have no opinion on stock replacement rotors. Have fun.

Default lemme know what you decide

I'm going to order soon. Still thinking the DBAs are a good option, especially with a deal.

Default I can throw some Bobcat's on eBay if that'll help your decision.
