    Depends entirely on what kind of driving you will be doing.

    Are you doing track days? What kinds of tires are you using? Mainly daily driver with the occasional weekend twisty excursion?

    Thanks man for all the info. One last question on the rotors. Is it better to go with slotted or drilled? I've heard pro's and con's on both.

    Slotted rotors are nice in the rain, there's no hesitation after you drive through a puddle, and especially if you have brake ducts. The slots are also useful for judging rotor wear.
