Default Drilled amd Slotted

I was cruising around on ebay when i found some drilled and slotted front brakes. I was wondering if anyone knew anything about these brakes and if they are actually worth the $140. Any info would help

i want to know is it really worth it on an outlander being the performance isnt really causing a threat to its stopping ability, is it really worth the money, and would it just be better if i were to put some high performance brake pads

they are great for disapating heat. if you do alot of hard braking or ever notice brake fade then sure... but for general low heat stopping. Better brake pads. Green or red stuff pads are good. Green is for mild perform, red is a little more.

The stock brakes and rotors suck on the Outlander.....I think you'll be really happy if you change everything over.
Cross drilled and slotted are probably the best for the Outlander.

yes, on any car regardless of what type and make or what anybody else tells you the front will always go out before the back. that is why when you get harsh on the brakes the front end dips down and the rear end doesnt squat. the only way the rear would wear out faster is if you use you e-brake alot to get your car to drift

The back brakes are Drums so they will last longer no matter what.
