Default Why would you want to upgrade the S4's brakes?!?!
IMHO the S4 has some of the most impressive brakes I've ever used stock. What would you want to upgrade, aside from perhaps moving to a pad that generates less brake dust?

Default I suppose for the track, but different pads should do.
I love the brakes, but I understand putting on different pads if you're tracking it.

Actually, I do like the looks of the red calipers.

Just thought we needed a topic change! And this one has lots of potential.

Default they can definitely be improved upon
But, I'll be honest, for most people the stock brakes are not bad at all!

Default Stoptech 2 wheel kits are made to be balanced with the rear stock brakes
As for the rears, you can paint them to match
