    how do the brakes feel? i heard that people that do swap to Evo Brembo's the braking is alot better but the petal is kinda mushy, because evo's have a little larger Master Cylinders then DSM's do

    on the CTS-V's they are Brembo's also. just made for 14" rotors

    here is the thread about it.

    here is another thread,

    this guy used Cobra Rotors which are 13", he could have got 14" rotors though
    the grayed area is what it would be if he used the right 14" rotors
