hey guys..

just checked the stickies and couldnt find any info on brake pads.. i ordered a set of Brembo Crossed Drilled Rotors (all 4) w/zinc plating.. i should get them in tmrw.. cant wait! but anyways i had planned on just using my brake pads that were on the car (since they arent that old).. then i noticed that on my front rotors (which are warped) there are slight ripples on the rotors, and i figured that i shouldnt reuse those.. and just replace them so i get a good smooth, even wear on my new rotors that i just paid $230 dollars for! but i dont really know which brand/type of brake pads will work best with the new rotors.. just wondering some pro/cons and what to look for when buying, and also how much you paid for them and where you got them.. so i figured id jump on here and ask you guys.. any advice is helpful and much appreciated.. thanks in advance..

 

can anybody help??

 

I run Ceramic pads on my x-drilled rotors. I think they are made by Wagner. Great stopping power, good initial bite, no noise and very little dusting.

 

Get Raybestos QS (Quiet Stop) ceramic pads from WWW.ROCKAUTO.COM I used them on my car when I went with slotted and cross dimpled plated rotors. NO problems at all. These are also ceramic pads and dust very little.

 

hawk hps are a good solid brake pad i think

 

Also can vouch for the Raybestos QS. Probably not the very best performing pad, but quiet, extremely low dusting, and a nice bite to em. Go for it.

 

i have cross/drilled rotors too, i use axxis metal master, very quiet and good grip, not lot of dusting either
