disc brakes for the rear
 
I don`t see much interest in this area, this car should have 4 wheel disc with anti lock readily available from the factory, Mine is 2008, leather, sun roof, with some wheels i had not seen before, with magna flow and a cgs intake, mostly for better fuel economy. I am new, any aftermarket?

hvrod converted both his HHRs to 4 wheel disc.

Here's his panel conversion thread........

when i was looking at the 08 models and decided to go used there was a safety package that included side air bags and 4 wheel abs disc brakes. is in actuality it is avil with 4 wheel disc. someone correct me if im wrong.

I bought the ABS Safety package on my 08.....drum brakes on the rear....

I believe that only the SS has 4 wheel discs.

the safety package includes side airbags and ABS brakes, not 4 wheel disc though.

one of the main reasons why i want with the 2LT because i wanted ABS on it for sure.

I have the first Sedan all wheel disc
and the first Panel all wheel Disc..


the only production HHR all wheel Disc is the SS HHR...

What parts did you use on this conversion and I can only assume trouble for your HHR factory warrantee ???

The factory should upsize the front discs and add slotted/drilled rotors. Mabe even ceramic pads.
Rear discs would also be my choice as well. Much more important than many of the ongoing upgrades they are doing.

I'm really getting tired of rotor problems with my GM vehicles.

They should cut back on some of there stupid advertising and get with the real program. That program is customer satisfaction.

Basically the parts from a SS Cobalt... similar to what the other post stated , getting you GM parts guy to part it out..

there was one comment about rear disks on cars taking price point into consideration, I disagree... there are lots of cars out there priced similar to or less than the HHR that have 4 wheel disk brakes.....
