Message	Hi, I would like to upgrade my brakes, cause simply I am not satisfied with them. I have stock brakes with 30mm width rotor and aluminium stock caliper, with OEM pads. I would like to keep my 16" stock wheels, so I cannot upgrade for bigger rotors. What is your opinion, what will help most? 1. upgraded pads, like Hawk HP+ 2. Stainless steel brake lines 3. Brake master cylinder brace kit [ http://www.conceptzperformance.com/Cart/description.php?II=316&Car_Type=300&UID=2009021015010278.131.63.87 ] I use my car for daily driving, never use for racing... Any other upgrade recommendation is welcome Thanks, A.
