About LinkBacksSo I want to do an upgrade over my stock brakes on my 06 Magnum SXT. Not sure on how crazy I want to go with them, but most everything I see available is for the V8 guys only. Anyone know of any good kits out there, whether they be complete big brake upgrades, or just a simpler slotted rotor setup? Thanks.

I think the brake kits are the same for all the platforms, and it looks like you have the larger wheels for clearance. I'd like to upgrade my brakes as well, but no way can I justify the prices. I'll probably just go with a better pad like Hawk or EBC.

I agree the brakes are minimal for the weight of the vihicle on the V6. When towing I got a little nervous a couple of times and found myself really standing on the peddle. After that I allowed myself more distence
I think the limiting factor is the diameter of our wheels. I have the 18" RT wheels but put the 17" back on when towing for that little extra power and braking. I'd be interested if anyone finds anything that will work with the stock 17s and really helps breaking.Tinted glass, Cut front springs 1 1/4",
