Brake Prob!! :eek:

I just got my 18's put on and now every time I have to jam on the brakes or even the slighted touch of them it feels like the pad skips the rotor and dosent really grap on! Makes the ABS go off constantly! Could it be that i need bigger brakes for the rims???


Thanx,

Juan

Baer by far isn't the only way to go. There's many other routes available, but do a search for that info.

As per your new rims, what size tires are you running and what tires? Since this shouldn't be happening, I don't care what size rims that you have.

Stop the whoring. Both of you. If you continue to whore your own thread, I will move this to OT.


BTW, after getting the rotors cut twice, it's time for new rotors. Get yourself some Brembo blanks and you're good to go.

Brembo blanks. Question*

How do you compare? If they are blanks would it be the same as getting some new OEM rotors? Please explaine.


Thanx
