I'm looking to change my brakes and want to know if there are any local shops that carry Hawk pads and possibly slotted rotors for my Saleen...I need 13" fronts.

Anyone know where I can find some?

online is your best bet. i know the rotors that were on there were brembo and hella expensive. thats why i never replaced them tho they needed it.

Brembo, really? I didnt even notice that. I'm not sure if they can still be resurfaced though...kinda thinning out.

they have a warehouse in Reno and ship as fast as Summit. In fact, their warehouse is across the street from Summit

Yea, it still has the same rotors on there. A had a guy check them out and said cross-drilled rotors tend to get cracks like that, but its not really bad...but in my case, the rotors are pretty worn so I think I'll need new ones or get them resurfaced (if still possible).
