Default Power Stop Kit on Amazon - I got lucky!

Hey Guys,

I just got REALLY lucky on Amazon. I have a 2014 Z51 with the original design rotors. Just like all of you, I would drive down the street and my rims would be full of brake dust. I read up alot here on which setup folks liked and I kept seeing great reviews on the Power Stop setup (please dont turn this into a who makes a better brake setup argument - this is not about that)...

Anyway - since summer, I've had the Power Stop K6532-26 Z26 kit in my Shopping Cart on Amazon...for whatever reason, I just wasn't ready to pull the trigger... At that time, the full pad and rotor kit was $580 on Amazon. Anyway, the other day, I noticed the price dropped $80 to $500...then the next day it dropped to $450...then the next $425... As of yesterday, they went all the way down to $380 and I grabbed them... Sure enough...today, they jumped UP $100 to $480 again...phew - boy was I lucky...

So I saved $200 off the regular price, and I have a nice little brake project to do once spring comes along!

Power Stop pads will turn your rotors brown.

I bought the Power Stop pads AND rotors...so I'm hoping this wont be the case... Your rotors are just slotted - these new rotors are drilled AND slotted...which also may help to avoid the browning...

I put them on my new CTS4. Now with 7K on them they are fine...no staining or dust at all. The 7 will be next.
