    I'm wondering if anyone has an 08 ES model lancer and converted the rear drums to disks....and is there a kit available?

    That's funny, I was just thinking about this!

    I imagine it's a straightforward swap if you can find a wrecked gts or someone swapping out theirs...with Honda's it's like changing underwear.
    Big break kit is an alternative but that's A LOT of loot...I just don't want ugly drums behind my new rims :oops:

    Change front ones too also , since they are bigger than your stock front ones. also watch inside clearance of your wheels .
