POWER STOP Brake pads
MoistCabbage1
  • Braking:
  • Dust:
Rating 5.0

I swapped in a set of Powerstop Z26 pads at around 5k miles and have loved them ever since. 1/4 of the brake dust and I notice no difference in performance which includes spirited driving and avoiding the occasional deer. I actually just replaced my first set of Z26s. They had about 60k miles on them with a little ways to go so they hold up well.

Pros: reduced brake dust, good performance
Mileage: 60000 km

Bilstein Shock absorbers

They are a little stiffer than stock. I’ve had Bilsteins on a 4th Gen Camaro, an 2002 Grand Prix, and a 2007 GMC Envoy. They were stiffer and improved handling on all the vehicles they were put on. You won’t be disappointed with the 5100 if you are looking more a little more performance than stock.

Pros: improved handling, more performance
Cons: stiffer than stock

Brembo Brake pads

The camaro SS uses brembo pads which are really good hence the price tag (imo the quote you got is pretty reasonable). If you want a more cost effective alternative, hit up MSW autoparts and ask for Zlatko. They have EBC brake pads which are also really good aftermarket pads.

Pros: good quality, reasonable price

Pirelli Tires

Had them on a Camaro SS a few years ago. Only snow tires I've ever used so I can't compare them to anything. I wasn't impressed, they weren't terrible but I expected more in deep snow. No complaints on dry or wet pavement.

Pros: no complaints on pavement
Cons: not impressed in snow
