Buying Baer Brakes

[vulgar]

well I just got my new rims and Im going to order baer brakes now. So my question is for those that have them? Do any of you have any advice as far as what kind of rotors I should get? Coatings? These are gonna be for everyday use but I do a lotta city driving and tend to be rough on my brakes. Thanks.

Refer to my post on the Grand Am board. If you have any other questions whatsoever, feel free to PM me. I've been running Baer brakes for 2.5 years now.

Not really a requirement but not a bad idea.....you'll need to bleed the front brakes at the very least.

I really hate bleeding the brakes on this car.
if you know someone with the scan tool that can run the car through the proper procedure it will save you a major headache

Bleeding brakes is not bad if you have the right tool. I have a Power Bleeder from Motive Products and I can bleed all 4 corners in 15 minutes.
