    Brake opinion Please

    I currently have the Baer Decela slotted and cross drilled rotor oe upgrade right now.

    I'm looking for an upgrade for the rear with the similar look.

    I know the front does 80% of the braking.

    Does anyone know a brand that carries at something similar for the rear or should I just be gay and get a OE rotor.

    Don't have the cash right now for a big brake upgrade and I do not run my wheels all year long since Minnesota winters suck.

    Any suggestions

    www.summitracing.com has very affordable slotted cross driller rotors. I believe 75 for the rear pair

    if you have aftermarket rotors now and you want an upgrade, but you do not want a big brake setup... then what exactly are you looking for? i see that you want something "similar", but i guess i am confused.

    i say save up until you can get a big brake kit.

    those are good rotors, i've got them but without the semi-drilled bits
    because they use an angle chamfer there are no stress points for heat fractures.
    you could look into getting a bigger OE caliper for the rear, I know the type s uses the same rear caliper and rotor but the TL or TSX might have something you could rig up.

    Thats a 5 lug rotor. I already called tire rack on my 02 4 lug and they don't have anything other than for the front in which I don't need.
    Maybe I need to upgrade to a 5 lug now

    The front rotors I have now with slotted and drilled stop great with the hawk hps pads. They are much better than stock but not a big brake upgrade. I was looking for a similar setup for the rear since I purchased the rear from Baer again and their stock number for the 02 ep doesn't fit mine so they are looking into this issue. Big brakes will come later
