Awesome job with the kit and it looks awesome. These are the 2 piece rotors right?? Just asking for clarification, but I wanted to ask if you would recommend different pads and brake lines to go with the kit for street use cause I am getting the kit (boy is my wallet gonna be light) and I want to know if it is a good choice from a professional. Just want to know if pads like Hawk and lines from Goodridge would work well on the street with this kit...Again awesome kit...
The kit comes with 2-piece rotors, the fronts have aluminum hats, the rears have cast iron because of the e-brake.

The Mintex Xtreme pads will work ok on the street but they will dust a fair bit as they are moderately aggressive pads. If you do a lot of street driving you might want a second set to swap in.

The kit also comes with Goodridge SS lines for all 4 corners. SS lines have only positive effects, there will be no detriment on the street.

Thanks man, great info, lol didn't know the kit already came with SS lines, but I'll consider buying some hawk performance pads or I'll just wait to see what travis is doing....
