ZGear, yeah it's my daily so i was kinda in a rush to do it. my dad took care of one side while i did the other. could've been better but hey, no one will notice much. yeah I figured it's better than having rusty drums LOL, but this will have to do until i can afford the rear disc setup.

and mkernz22, those lines n grooves are because the disc are "slotted" discs. I didn't wanna get the drilled ones because I heard they are prone to cracking but I like the looks of slotted more anyways. they just are there to release heat while braking. Good upgrade from OEM

JustinCapps, gotta say, I do like the akebonos. they're really nice compared to the ones I had before. very little brake dust. biggrin.gif
