Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Brakes Best new front rotors for a car with rear drums??

Gentlemen,

What would you suggest as an upgrade for new front rotors for a car with rear drums. The front rotors have been turned once and the problem has returned only after 700 miles. I want to make sure that I am making the right move. Thanks for the suggestions!!

Peace and Happy Holiday's!!

PS. I forgot to mention the I have stock 15" rims and I do a lot of braking. Would cross drilled or slotted be a good way to go?? I could us some help?? Thanks

Im happy with my EBC rotors (tirerack.com) and mintex a/f pads (http://www.batinc.net/main.htm)

You can move up to the SVT / Cougar size front rotors. Perry did.

Of course, you will either need the late SVT / Cougar caliper brackets or the early SVT calipers and brackets. They seem to fit just fine under all factory 15" wheels.

Just be aware that the mini spare will not fit over the larger brakes so you will need to put the spare on a rear and move the rear tire to the front if you should have a front flat. Maybe we should have let you learn the hard way. Perry did.
