Brakes
Permalink  
Rebecca's XJ is going to need new front brakes in the very near future. I'm just curious what you guys are running in the form or pads and rotors and if anyone has any feedback (preferably nagative so I know what to stay away from).

I replaced mine on my XJ; however my XJ does not see the street like her's does. Just looking for some feedback on some decent priced pads and rotors.

Thanks in advance!

i just went to Advanced Auto and got the medium performance pads. They have plenty of stopping power for the 33s IMO.

Dont get stock replacements (Auto Zone). You should upgrade trust me, maybe even convert rears to discs. I plan on doing so, but for now I'll antecipiate(sp) my stops three to four cars back and keep speeds to mini.

I went to NAPA and got the Higher End Pads and the Medium Rotors...for 31s they stop great. I cant give you 100% accurate information since i have for corner discs, but they definelty stop better then whatever the old stuff was.
