and of course with new rotors have to get the best pads!!

look up Hawk racing pads, i hear they put EBC pads to shame. i havent cross refrenced thier pads to daewoo just yet, ive looked abotu a year and a half ago and they didnt have any direct refrence to daewoo pads just yet, maybe theyll have some that fit now. but its definatly worth looking into of you want the "best"

Does anyone know if the Aveo shares the same brake setup as the lanos?

Tom is the man for that one, one of the people at Apex/360 has an aveo so they could check easily enough, I sure hope so because I GOT TO GET ME SOME OF THOSE!!!!

hey WooHoo... i didn't quite get the part concerning the caliper mod., did you get another bracket for the caliper or did you use the OEM on and relocated it??

those look really great! i say you paint your calipers. then it would look 100x better!

i have been digging in my photo archive and i found out that i do have a pic for the modification you did for the OEM bracket... simple but effective.

i dont understand what you did to the caliper
did you keep it stock because if you did there is almost no reason to having big disks if you still have the same amount of surface area coming in contact.

but you do have more torque when it comes to stopping the wheel. the greater the distance between the axis of rotation and the friction surface, the greater the stopping ability.

is that what the wheel looks like? or is there some kind of center cap to cover that beige looking part?

the center cap got stained from the elements so i painted it teh same color ans the caliper

yes it is the stock caliper, and no it isnt pointless

you can change out the caliper for a 2 or 4 piston caliper and stop faster but not much faster..

i can lock the wheels with these disk and i have ABS, before the brakes always felt like i couldnt stop if my life depended on it and now if you push them to hard you will get whiplash

You relocate them? How? Do you take pics of this process?
