I'm trying to get new pads/rotors, but I can't seem to find pads anywhere. I don't think there are any aftermarket pads for my calipers yet. I always goto dealership and buy oem though.

Would it be a good idea to buy bigger slotted rotors then oem, and go with the oem pads? How are the oem pads?

 

i'm wanting to know if there are any options out there as far as big brake upgrades for my 07 also.

 

Same here to me to me to spend the extra 10k for the grand touring just for brembos wasnt worth it when you can spend money towards better rotors and pads and get almost just as good as brembos.

 

Same as 06 , just look for pads and rotors under that year.

 

oh damn i thought someone said they were different
you're right i just checked the repair manuals for specifications...

even the 05 is the same too, right?

 

Nope 05 is the smaller brakes , 03 to 05 are the same. 06 and 07 are the same ,all Brembo's are the same.

 

I like the '05 OE pads (not sure if their compound changed for '06-'07) for street and autoX - great intial bite! (cons: lots of dust and worthless on the track)

slotted/drilled rotors - a good set will help, but if you're not having problems, I don't see any reason to pay more $$.

*I have a 2nd set of track pads that I use.

 

I bought Endless ceramic pads to replace those damn dust evokers that come with the stock Brembos. I am pretty sure Endless makes pads for the non-Brembo versions.
