I'll definitely be ordering now with the discount. Is it worth upgrading the calipers as well on my 2008 Tahoe? Or are new rotors and pads good enough?

The good thing about ordering everything at once is knowing that it is all taken care of and that if you properly maintain the power steering (in hydroboost equipped trucks) and brake fluid, you will have MANY years of better than stock performance out of the brakes. It is also nice to know that in emergency stopping situations or long downhill grades, you will not have the same brake fade you see with stock brake parts. It provides a peace of mind that is worth every single penny spent on the parts, especially when those parts are not THAT much more than stock replacement parts in the first place!

Well unfortunately I did not get pictures of the install, but I can definitely say that I am extremely pleased with how everything turned out! These brakes feel incredible so far. I went with the slotted and double drilled rotors with posi quiet pads along with braided lines. In my mind, best mod one can do for their vehicle. Feels much more secure now and fantastic pedal feel.

Chris, (CLKELLEY) I can't thank you enough for all of your great customer service and incredibly fast replies to my questions. Thank you again!

:cheers:

It is ALWAYS good to hear great reviews like this! I truly appreciate the shout out! As long as you keep the power steering and brake fluid good and fresh, you should be enjoying those upgraded brake parts for MANY MANY years to come!!
