First, it seems that many guys are running Hawks. The HPS model seems to be the more common. Anyone running HP+ on the street? They are a bit more corrosive and can squeak from what I've read.

Secondly, what brand of stainless steel brake lines are the best? I've seen a lot of guys running Earl's and was looking for some feedback.

Thanks in advance.

Earl's and Hawk HPS, no complaints. Good grip, no noise, seem to have less brake dust than stock, better grip, firmer brake pedal, for the money (less than $250) a good investment in stopping power.

 

Not a fan of the HAWK pads after running them on my F-150 lots of dust and very noisy. I prefer the EBC Pads and Rotors and you cannot go wrong with the Earls lines.

You guys got any links for purchase of these items?

 

I would also like some links. My next mod will be to upgrade the stock brakes. Would like links to the best price for Rotorpro rotors,Hawk pads and Earls SS brake lines.

Earls makes a great product, I hear hawk makes good pads

 

Have you considered Baer Eradispeed 14" rotors? You will get an increased torque arm and thermal capacity.

 

Yes... I have looked at all those options. While they are all outstanding brake upgrades I am looking forward to retirement in about 10 to 13 yrs. and have considered a lesser upgrade.

I have used Russell SS brake lines, very good. I am thinking about Hawk Performance Ceramic pads, or Akebono pads-when the time comes.

 

Here is a link to the EBC Pads and Rotors

As for the best deal on the Rotorpros buying direct from them is best.

i went with hawk hps pads & earl lines. i used the stock rotors & noticed a good improvement. better braking & no squeaking. this was the best price that i was able to find.

I believe that Stoptech also offers SS lines for our application.

 

Wow thanks for the link
my buddy and I are thinking about doing a roadtrip next month and hitting Tail of the Dragon in Carolina - definitely need to upfit the brakes for that

buying separately on that link I can get rotors, pads, and lines for cheaper than the Brenspeed Stoptech package.... good deal
