bigger rotors
i was thinkin about putting bigger rotors on my 94 fleetwood. How much bigger can i go and would it be better to also but bigger calipers and pads? would it really make a big difference if i got some huge rotors on it? I was thinkin if i take some off an esclade or maybe some aftermarket ones. What do you think the price tag would be for new front rotor and caliper assembly? and i wouldnt have to get bigger wheel bearings would i? thanks for any input.

if you know how and have the tools for suspension work, swap the whole assy.
it makes little sense to change one item and not the rest.
bigger usually fades less and stops better up to the point the rubber on the tar mat skids.
best example of what happens when brakes fade is the Indy race crash of 1971 where Palmer lost control on pit lane with astronaut John Glenn, Tony Hulman and a sportscaster aboard, crashing into a photographer stand .. brakes faded at that speed.
