Anybody have a good suggestion for after market rotars and brake pads for the new gen X's. Also if I do replace the rotars and brakes, should the calipers, and brake fluid resevoir thingy be replaced also....

sorry im pretty new to brake stuff!!!!

no the only thing you need to worry about is pads and rotors. but have your rotors checked, cause generally the won't go as quickly as the pads.

Thanks man, but i think you might have misread my post a little....

I want aftermarket performance type breaks. I plan on going up to 35's as soon as my calmini lift gets here (hopfully 3 more weeks) and will probably need better stopping power.... So do i still only have to worry about the pads and calipers... Or if i get the performance stuff am i going to have to replace the other things too.

**If you did read my post right I appologize!

nope i totally apologize, i misread it. you may run into needing new calibers then...
