Which brake pads are you using?


Everyone still using OE pads? Has anyone tried Hawk pads or similar? If so, did you like them?

I went with Bendix pads after swapping to drilled/slotted rotors. No noise, their fairly soft and brake much better than before... but Im not much of a road racer so I cant really tell how much hp they gave me,

Some cheap pads. Will be upgrading to EBC Green Stuff pads next paycheck though! I've heard that they are really good.

Hmm.. just checked out the link for the red and yellow pads... Maybe I'll change my mind since I'm looking to do some mountain driving soon.

pads


Hawk on the cobra and going on the gt. They seem to wear well and stop great. Not as much dust as I thought they would produce.
