The #1 complaint I have on my STA is the crappy tiny soft brakes. What is my best option for a brake upgrade. Keep in mind that I have had 22" rims on it since the day I got it and the tiny rotors look laughable at best.

Would love a 6 piston option w/ a larger rotor if possible. I have heard of a conversion from the GT500 Brembo Brake kit, but need something more plug and play and less full customization.

Any thoughts?
 






Ive heard the Lincoln Aviator has larger factory brakes but a hub swap is needed. But then you can run better pads that bite better. I like Hawk HPS. They are quiet and predictable at low speeds but bite like a track pad when they get heated up. Best of both worlds.
