I went ahead and bought the Pirelli's for the front. Seemed like a good deal.

I had the regular powerstop rotors on my 95 Maxima, they're pretty good. I've always avoided drilled rotors though. They've been known to crack around the holes. The only really good ones are the ones that are forged with the holes in them instead of drilled, but they're pricy. Not to mention I've done a lot of hard driving on flat rotors in multiple vehicles without any issues over the years. If you need better braking a bbk is a better option.

I have been thinking about the LS1 conversion. I already have the spindles and caliper rebuild kits but I have to figure out where to draw the line. This is a daily driver, a commuter. I think I may leave the brake upgrade for next year. I am still thinking about it, I have not ordered the brakes yet

This is the wheels, Tires are in and will get mounted tomorrow. I will not drive the car with them on until it get aligned.
