    Hey this week thursday im going to autozone or pep boys to buy some new brake pads, rotors, and calipers. When it comes to brakes as long as i can find a reliable cheap pair im happy. I did think about upgrading sizes of all my old stock rotors, calipers, and whatever else need be. I'll take opinions whether brakes should just be replaced the same size as stock or if bigger is better. Also i just ran into some good looking brembo brake calipers on ebay said to fit the 2000 gtp. Please take a look and tell me what size calipers these would fit. Brembo Brake Caliper Covers 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP: eBay Motors (item 150469819704 end time Aug-19-10 05:13:38 PDT)


    Thanks

    stock's are fine with good pads if you're on a budget.

    If braking is a real concern then upgrade to the 12" GM rotor and get some good pads.

    But good brakes never come cheap.

    just covers? you're producing american rice with interest[and questions] in shiz like these.

    to answer your question, you don't need anything different from stock to "run" those.

    Why would you critize me ? If i have interest in them then i have interest in them... you have you own interest obviousley. And because i like the idea of having brembo caliper covers doesnt mean im going to put a spoiler on my car freakin prick. I probably wont be buying them anyways because their probably a cheap scam from ebay. Thanks for takin a shot at me though.
