Message	Just wondering the difference in brake options. On one hand you can get brembo stock sized rotors ~$160 (just fronts) Or Z33 sized rotors ~ $480 (just fronts w/ relocator brackets) Stock sized = 11” Z33 = 12.75” Does this mean the Z33 rotors will give me 16% better stopping power? Will I be able to stop in 84 ft in the distance that stock brakes will stop in 100ft? or is it not that easy? I just can’t seem to justify 3 times the price for 16% improvement if even that *****Disclaimer - My spelling is horrific! i appologise in advance :)****** -RickyTL (MA)-
