[QUOTE="barspen, post: 15324840, member: 152936"] I have the '13/'14 rears and they are mostly for looks. I have had ample track time on them and I can tell you I feel no difference in way the car brakes or any feeling of a bias shift. They will dissipate a little more heat, but that's about it functionally. They do look much nicer IMHO. How can you tell the rears brakes on our cars do very little to stop the car...drive about 40MPH down the road and slowly pull the e-brake. The place you do see heavy rear braking is when traction control engages. Can't speak to the big brake kits, but I believe those will make a difference in stopping power and the bias. You a probably looking at spending bigs bucks to upgrade all 4 corners. As far as pad, Hawk makes a solid product, but for the $$, AutoZone CMAX (Duralast Max) pad as a great bargain that provide good stopping power on the street, very little dust and no noise. I've tried a few different types and I'm going back to Duralast Max next time. For track and autocross use, it's a whole different discussion... [/QUOTE]
