    Performance Brakes

    I'm getting ready to install some kind of performance brakes.

    What do you like and why? Is there a consensus as to the best brakes and/or the best place to buy?

    I've been looking at SSBC 4 caliper polished. I have 18" wheels and don't want to change.

Taillights filled, roll pan w/93 Cad lights horizontally placed, tailgate handle inside, Gaylord tonneau, bed slide & bed rug, all trim removed, Escalade door handles, 18" Enkei & Falcons, Speed grill. Grill shell, bumper pad, & valance painted white. Mirrors painted white. Many interior pcs painted black (over beige), black leather seat inserts and sun visors. 2" dropped DJM lower control arm, shackles/hangers for 4" rear drop. Engine: 5.3 , Radix w 2.8" pulley, 90 mm throttle body, Dart 225 heads, Comp Cam 581-588 224-230 on 114. ARP head bolts. KTech rod bolts. Alky Control methanol injection, Pacesetter lt's into elec cutouts then 4" polished Magnaflow SS mufflers then 4" ovalized SS pipes exiting in front of rear wheels both sides, gas tank removed and 24 gal. fuel cell where spare tire was w/Aeromotive pump, pre and post filters and pump controller & -10 SS fuel line. 160 thermostat MSD wires & Perma Cool fan, 34" radiator, Meziere elec water pump.

    Your sig is long.... did you upgrade to stainless lines yet? Even that makes a huge difference.

    Truck looks sweet.

    I'd just step up to the larger 05 and 06 brakes. My truck will put me through the windshield
