Call Tobin, he'll spend the time and ask the right questions required to deliver brakes that meet your needs.  |
Sieg nailed it. Not magic, just better quality castings. I have almost 3,000 miles and lot's of aggressive driving, autocrosses, and two road courses, the rotors look perfect still. I've heard of warping issues with the GM ones also.
I'd agree on the braking power with Sieg, I had the same front tire and could easily lock them up at will. The Rivals offer more grip for sure, but still more brake than tire. Hoping 265's will help
