A decent set of breaks on that .:R. How do they compare to your breaks?

Look stunning too.

I was reading that thread and someone mentioned that upgrading for bigger breaks is not always better and can make the cars breaking power worse?

Anyone care to explain? And I would have to get rid of the Porsche logo's too.
