Upgrading brakes, and darn are the new brakes sweet!
Check out these rotors from StopTech.
Icing on the cake is that StopTech offers kits (rotors & pads) that are just slightly more pricey than standard OE replacements.
I also decided to upgrade the calipers.
Next up, custom exhaust.

I agree boss. For some reason they did not upload properly. Will edit post later in the week when I am in front of a desktop.
Here is the rotor and caliper together.

I did the Powerstop rotor upgrade due to vibration. Threw on some caliper covers to keep the brake dust off my wheels, they work good, still using oem pads. Low mileage.

An upgrade is an upgrade!
I will be comparing the new ones to a pretty high standard. As mentioned before, my stock Motorcraft rotors have made it to 175K miles. They will be retired on Friday.

Sometimes you get lemons that you just can't turn into lemonade.
In all candidness, I have always gone ridiculous miles on my rotors. I have a heavy foot on the gas and not so much on the brakes!
