You have to be able to stop after all that 'get go' you have!
I have cross drilled & chamfered rotors with metallic pads on all 4 corners.
Not the best quality but I noticed a difference & still feel good I got them, better than stock anyway... especially for $225 canadian. Calipers seem to be ok. (knock on wood)
