Re: Brembo Brakes, Finally!!!!
he does, but he didnt drive long enough to remember how they felt. plus his stock ones were shit, so anything else would be an improvement. he drove with me when i had my r1concept rotors and ceramic pads, they stopped well. now its even better, way better2006 Pontiac G6 V6-Too many mods-Traded In(RIP 2006-2010)

Re: Brembo Brakes, Finally!!!!
i still cant get over how well they work and stop the car. i was doing 125 the other day and had to stop. they never hesitated, never started to shake and stopped perfectly, stop and go city traffic not a problem. high speed driving on the turnpike, not a problem. they are great brakes and a definite upgrade for us performance modded g6's2006 Pontiac G6 V6-Too many mods-Traded In(RIP 2006-2010)

Re: Brembo Brakes, Finally!!!!
After thinking a while and searching eBay for SS Brembos...the light bulb flickered in my head and got me thinking....if the SS brembo kit bolts right up to ours vehicles, then would an after market kit for the SS bolt up too?It's not what you've got in the car, it's what you can do with it!

Re: Brembo Brakes, Finally!!!!
By clearing the rim, that would be were the spacers come into playIt's not what you've got in the car, it's what you can do with it!

Re: Brembo Brakes, Finally!!!!
yes. you will need spacers. at least 5mm, albert and i went 15mm simply for the wider stance and clearance to clean them. i called many rim companies and the biggest offset they offer is 42mm. i think the brembos require a 45mm offset. so basically you will need spacers.
if you run anything bigger then 5mm, you will need to get longer wheel studs like we did.
as for pictures, they are in the thread just look. but for the lazy ones heres pics again
this picture is with the 5mm spacers, just too close for me.
