brakes are a funny thing, alot is riding on your brakes, not only you, but including the suspension to the tires, its not a long guess that if your brakes are that bad, what about the adjoining systems. a healthy suspension, proper alignment. good parts, last i checked there was a good selection of parts, and the prices are good. if you swap-out the brakes and the other parts arent up to par, the whole thing can have shortened life, abnormal wear, and/or not work but so well; i ve even seen where an old part can 'snap' after another part is changed. like when you need it the most, &put it past its (tired or spacey)strength. like also a hard dive, and then its not hard to figure, a good chance you cannt control the car if it goes that far.
