Hey guys,
So i just did a 2/3 Belltech drop and threw on my 24's. Rides real good def some rubbing. I noticed the braking lags a little with the bigger wheels. Any opinions about going with a bigger brake kit? Is it worth it? And recommended brands to go with vs. stay away from?

They are nice but they do cost a lot. Here's my Wilwood's that I purchased used off this forum.

Big brakes are big $$$. Im trying to save some money so I am going to do this:

Then im going to put these on:

If you need more stop you can always add some Hawk pads and some SS brake lines.

The only BAD thing I can see is the rotor is one piece. I had a tahoe with the powerslot kit and the rotors were 2 piece.... It would stop those 24's on a DIME

Baer has a 15" 2 piece rotor upgrade for about $600 for the fronts and includes relocating brackets for your stock calipers.
