    Now ive heard you can upgrade to a cts calipers and rotors. Does anybody know what size wheel you have to run and what offset? I didn't see anything in the other discussion page either that I didn't look hard enough.

    you have to run 18s with the CTS-V (2004-2007) calipers. there's an entire thread about it. read up:

    I recommend doing the front brakes first, and then see if you still want more braking power. the majority of braking power comes from the front, so rear brakes don't make a big difference

    If anything you can do GXP brakes in the rear, but like the SGT said, it won't really do much. People do it for looks.
    Retros, LEDs, SD Hood GMPP, Votland, Addco
    06+ Impala brakes, L76 Springs, ERs, Self-Tuned, 3.5 Gen V L32, Ported TB, 240a CS144, SSAC, Upgraded Transmission, Android Head Unit, Remote stuff, GXP Seats
