    Also you will only get the squealing for the first 100 miles while they break in completely & then the squealing stopped (for me at least)

    I heard a lot about drilled rotors cracking, thats why i went with the dimpled and slotted. Then again, I dont offroad my jeep, so I dont have a problem with that. Yeah, I had squeaking in my brakes for about the first 50 miles, but now they are smooth and noiseless. I agree with the improved stopping power over stock though!!

    Figured id take advantage of my Friday off this week and do my brakes. Ordered centric rotors and akebono pads for a total of $324 shipped (thats both front & rear). I priced up the EBC slotted w/EBC pads.. it was over twice as much.. id rather put that money into other mods.
