Installed Brembo drilled rotors up front, really nice rotors and made a big difference in brake pedal feel and stopping distances. I think brakes are overlooked when ppl get lift kits and bigger tires, and the stock brake system is not as efficient.

Up here mud is a common equation in pretty much most offroading. Nice rotors become just as good as cheap rotors pretty damn quick.
