Now what should I do?

I know I need new rear rotors and I have a set of Hawk pads to install (thanks Ian!). So should I keep the original rotors on the front and put new OEM rotors on the rear, or upgrade both front and back to Cross Drilled and Slotted? My "play" money has kinda been moved to the wedding expenses, so I don't want to spend a lot right now. I was looking at buying the rotors from Racing Brake, but if I don't have to, I'll rather not.

Is anyone running Hawk pads (or any other aftermarket pads) with regular rotors? If so, do you feel any difference, vibrations, etc...?

If you're looking for bling, get cross-drilled. They are not an upgrade.

 

how about slotted?
is that considered an upgrade?

 

Slotted is debatable - I don't believe the marginal difference if any is worth the premium. You might get a little better initial bite if it's wet but that's about it.

 

thanks Balzz for the tips, I guess I can save some money =)
