I make sure to keep my BBC’s clean and well maintained, but dont get me wrong I ride my BBC’s HARD!! I recommend every1 try a BBC at least once in your life!

I daily drive a 2014 Corolla, with some really nice Michelins. I’ve really slammed on the brakes, and they slip before the tires in dry conditions.
I’m going to be getting mini Cooper rotors to put onto my Corolla. And we figuring out what all I need to do to make that work. Currently the 10-inch rotor on their does not stop the vehicle effectively I will not lock up the front wheels this is rear wheel drive. So the 11 1/2 inch mini Cooper rotor plus it’s breaks should help that. And since I want to be running 16 inch rims versus 13 I will be happy with that. I looked into the super big brake kit thing but that requires 18 inch rims. And I don’t want that big of a wheel on my 82 Corolla. With 16 I get that bigger look and I can get a tire that is the same height as stock
