Brakes upgrade after 20s and 35s

I love my 20s and 35s on my truck and how they look but it affected my braking quite a bit. I know 90% of people dont even bother up grading brakes when they throw heavier wheel/tire packages but Id feel awful if I ran someone over because I had larger tires then stock and I tow a utility trailer with 2 4wheelers quite often and that just exacerbates the problem. I was hoping to find a 14" rotor upgrade like what power slot makes for the half tons. I did some searching and couldnt find anything like that. I already know Im going to get better pads but I dont know what is the best for these heavy trucks. I had hawk hps pads on my Z71 and they were awesome, Im also going to upgrade to stainless lines, and better brake fluid. I was just hoping to up size the rotors for a decent price. Im not ready to step up to the wilwood kit just yet.:rofl:

this is the main reason Im more or less happy with my 265's and stock clear-coat-peeling PYO's...

I have 305/50/20s and theyre not bad at all. I dont like how high my truck revs on the freeway with pizza cutters on.

Some folks on the "other site" were recommending rotorpros.com. Google search turned up quite a few people who liked their kit.

I've been looking into them b/c at 30k - my brakes are vibrating pretty bad. $400 to the door.

Has anyone here used them? If so, any significant mileage/abuse? Wondering how well they hold up.

I checked those out they look pretty decent. No way of knowing as I dont know anyone personally who has used them.
