Stock brakes are very stout. They are far more powerful than your tires can handle. Don't believe me? Go to an empty parking lot, speed up to 35 mile an hour, then stand on the brakes. I'll bet the ABS kicks in to prevent wheel lock-up. If this doesn't happen, you may have a problem with your brakes.

Drilled and slotted rotors look cool, but spending a ton of money on brakes for better performance is a lost cause on a stock set-up.
