Hey any idea where i can find these pads a little cheaper.
Porterfield R4S ... what is the RE4 For at their website b/c ive only heard of user's using the R4S Version..

http://livermoreperformance.com/Porterfield%20Pads.html


It's says 75$ for the R4S i assume that's just the front pads right... Any insight Or CHEAPER PRICE would help. Thanks guys.
mwest.

Btw, I got 6 months of drive from my $50 Raybestos QS pads, which really didnt stop that well after 5000 miles anyway.. Raybestos suck!

 

They're well worth the money.

 

Agreed. Those aren't bad prices as MSRP is $89f/$69r. You probably don't want the R4E's. Those are an edurance race compound and probably wouldn't even work on the street.

 

I got a set of rear R4S's from www.precisionbrakes.com I think they were $65-70

 

thanks guys..

hey mitch i went to that web site but never saw the pads for a maxima displayed. Prob have to call n **** to get a real price..

where did the rest of you purchase your pads from....? thanks guys.

 

Hello. all. In march i got help from many & purchased a set just directly from Porterfield Direct.

I got em. & w, no shims at all. so i called em.. oh use ur stock shims itll be fine. really? yeah itll be ok or just try using no shims.. should work just fine he said.

Yeah right i thought, (yes ive done brakes before too).

So here we are 6 months Later.
The New Brembo Rotors from Tirerack.com are ruined.... -115.00 ty porterfield.
The New Porterfield Pads from them direct. -100.00 ty again Porterfield.

The rotors have a Huge gash/line bout 1/8 deep in the rotor.. too big to turn down..

I checked the pads very well and nothing is sticking out to make this.. just crappy pads.. There are perfectly flat on the pad but make the most horrific Grinding, squealing, tearing, and metal shaving sound ever when i stop..

I actually get people asking me wtf is wrong with ur brakes.. But all i can reply with is.. "hey there new pads & rotors.... 100 dolla pads actually, Porterfield brakes suck ***"

SO>> I wouldnt buy em unless you see em and see the shims..
I cant believe i bought Junk off the internet again and lost my a$$.. Anyone else have constant bad luck with there maxima.. ha
