Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Brakes Need New Rotors & Pads whats the best?

I think it's a common misconception, around this forum, that you don't need to upgrade brakes unless you're tracking your car frequently. I have never taken my car to the track, but there has been many times that having upgraded brakes has come in handy. Who here doesn't drive "agressively" and need to stop quickly from time to time. Not that my brakes are way better than anybody else's, but I like them a lot more than I did the stock brakes. The sticky thread about slotted rotors states arguments from people who like and dislike them. I certainly don't think anybody would get flamed for saying they might get slotted rotors, as if it's an open-shut argument. My powerslots are fantastic, and have shown great wear without extra wear on my pads. They also give great perfomance in wet weather, where regular rotors may lack. I had Stazi's brakes for a while, and they were fine. But I think if you make your car faster with mods, you should make your car able to stop faster as well. Makes perfect sense to me.
