stillen rotors for 17 inch wheels

beleive it or not, my titan has 400 miles it...picked it up last week. went to new york...one of the roads was scattered with traffic signals (at least 50) within a span of 150 feet... by the end of it guess what? every time i was slamming onthe brakes the car would pull ot the right mostly...

this is a truck manufactured in MAY 05... taking it to the dealer to check if the brakes are the old or the new fix..

BTW i saw those rotors online...will they make a difference? has anyone used them? I am thinking that instead of having the dealer screw with me and waste my time just to install them..for 239 USD i will buy my peace of mind and avoid dealer lies!

I have the OEM size front & rear cross-drilled stillen rotors, metal matrix pads, DOT 4 fluid, Crown SS lines & speedbleeders. I am happy with them so far.

i have the Crown SS lines and tried the speedbleeders, two of which leaked. the lines also leaked around the connections, so i would suggest using teflon tape when connecting. The lines are great and feel much more solid than stock. definate peace of mind.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE LINES!

I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND the speedbleeders.

Call stillen and get the brake pros brake upgrade that is what i have and just get some basic 18s or some 20s but make sure u talk to someone that knows what there talking about. And make sure the guy you talk to does not get mad when u ask questions because i had a bad sales rep? by the name of WADE? So make sure u talk to someone that knows what the hell they are talking about.

I just got the rotors and pads from stillen, had them a week and im very happy so far. My factory pads were worn all the way at 22k miles, and ill be damned if I have to pay $175 for the factory pads and the brake dust.
