Brake performance dimpled & slotted rotors with performance semi-metallic pads. Calipers painted black with 4 coats of duplicolor. I have not yet bed the pads. Hopefully I will report back with good results in a couple weeks.

Cool. Nice work.

 

Looks good. I have to paint my calipers and drums tomorrow.

 

Looks great man!

 

looks good..honestly i would have just painted my calipers the same color as my truck! make it stand out a little more then blending in...looks good just saying when i do mine i'm going to paint the calipers and drums silver i think! idk to far way to be making any decisions now!

 

I think he made the right decision painting them black. I had planned to paint mine red or silver, but after seeing the size of the back drums (ginormous) I spoke with someone that has the same size wheels that I just got and agreed with him that black is the way to go. The wheels I got will expose a good portion of the drum and for me any other color besides black would be obnoxious imo. Now if the back had disc brakes that would be a different story.

 

Looks good

 

Yea I almost went yellow, but it would be obnoxious on the drums in the back. The red wouldn't match the inferno red color of the truck, so matching paint was out for me.

 

Hey theres the guy! Thanks for the feedback in the PM's Slick Dakota!
