This of course would require an upgrade to 17s. The Alero doesn't have a great brake set up. The Camaro swap is a night and day difference. It would bring your car more in line to autobahn specs.
For the rear, usually nothing is done, but if you want you can always do 2004-2008 Grand Prix GXP rear calipers and rotors.

So not to steal the thread or anything, but would it be possible to just use camero pads and rotors in the rear as well? Since I've bought the car, back in February, the brakes and rotors passed inspection but they really need replaced, and the way I drive, I could use the increased braking power.
I'm looking at these two sets and wondering if they'd work
