Looking to buy brakes for my 09 fx4. Ive heard that oem brakes are prone to rotors warping and a lot of brake dust. Was wanting to upgrade. Any suggestions?

powerstop z36 kit. costs about the same as stock replacement on all 4 corners and they are WAY better than stock.

I went to the local parts store and got the rotors and pads that came with a lifetime warranty. Paid $250. And yes, that's lifetime warranty on the rotors.

Wouldn't say they are the best, but I won't have to pay for them from here on out sooo...

Just the front ...what about the rear?

ProAktion

Yup. Rear as well. Of course, Ill be purchasing the rear kit as well. It will be a while before I install them. I will definitely post pics when I do.
You have to have 20" wheels for these kits to work according to the Wilwood Rep I talked to. 18" wheels may be ok. Have to check the clearance first.

Man that's a lot,but looks serious though. I wonder how much there is in weight difference ? But sounds like you're going 20" also. The first time you use the new setup,you might put a nose print on the inside of the windshield
