another brake question
 
another brake question.
My 2002 x5 has 30,000 and on a few days the lights will come on for the brakes, today the stealer told me that it will be $1,076 to change all four(front and rear rotor + pads).

ok my question is can i get better brakes and pads for that amount of money ?

how about the brembo rotors?

I care about performance, so i just want to get some brakes that will perform better than the OEM rotors and pads. and still keep the cost below $1,200

how about some of these rotors ?


how about these cross drilled rotors?

will doing it my self void any warranty ?

You can buy Brembo cross drilled rotors on ebay all day long. Axxis brake pads will eliminate wheel dust. Install them yourself and save $600.00.

Axxis pads - which ones? :dunno: there are at least 3 different compounds. ceramic?
Thanks. I too would prefer a larger vented rotor, but the winter setup is 17" wheels. :confused: :tsk:

Shouldn't your full maintainance cover pads and rotors?

pepatrick 08-31-2005 10:45 PM

MY2002 only has 3/36 maintenance. He could still be under the warranty...but not sure
