Brake Advice needed
I need some brake advice. I am planning on replacing the front OEM rotors and pads with the following. Rotors: Brembo, Pads PBR/Axxis Deluxe.

Is this a good choice? I like to drive fast when I have a chance, which is not often and I do not do track days. Does anyone have any noise problem with these pads? Do they fit as well as the OEM.

Thanks for your advice.

Very good choice. I have these exact components sitting in my garage waiting to slap on when I can make the time.

Aren't the OEM rotors manufactured by Brembo? I believe they were at one time...?

Just did EBC Slotted/Dimpled rotors, Axxis Deluxe + Pads, ATE Gold Fluid on all 4s with help from YKK M-coupe on the Roadfly board.

Looks and feels awesome. Will post some pics tomorrow!
