I have 18" white rims with cross drilled & slotted rotors on the front with SS braided brakelines all around. What is the best pad for less dust? With a price around say $150?

 

raybestos is the best low dusting pad...not the most aggressive tho...Ceramics eat roters and dont have as much bite as other pads. Depending on how you drive....i would recomend raybestos QS if your not an agressive driver as these are not ment to be pushed to their limit. I have them, and i regret buying them because i mash around town to much, they aite my rotors in less than 3 months..

 

Best brake pad for white rims would be a white pad.

Try Tampax brand.


J/K A Ceramic pad will have the least amount of dust, yet still have good stopping power.

 

i beg to differ with the stopping power...but to each his own

Like i said it all is based on how you drive...I am going to try replacing my blank rotors with slotted ones, to see if i can keep my driving habits up without eating all the blank rotors i have in the past lol...

 

look you are wasting your money onthe cross drilled and slotted
all they are are blanks that have been machined by the person that u are buyihng them from, unless u get the big brake kit's that are out there
second when u get a cross drilled it does nothing but make it look cool
"less contact area" makeing it harder to stop
slotted does make it easier to stop but when u change pads you will have a problem finding someone to turn them...unless u are in a major city
also most of the brake pads on the market that will replace your stock ones will eat up fast so u will spend the money anyway
when u put a larger rim on the maxima you will want bigger rotors so go ahead and save the money and time get a big break kit (i suggest brembo) you will like the look and the stopping power is unGodly
but if u are going for the stock upgrade ceramic will give the least dust and each pad that u put on your car will feel different to you so go ahead and do a little research before you do it the oem breaks wont hurt for now

 

when did i say i was going to get X drilled? As for the slotted, they dont provide better stopping power (i assume this is what you ment by saying stoping easier), they provide better COOLING of the rotors wich enable you to break more aggressivly wich in the long run will help your stopping power over exxesive abuse. As for turning rotors, i guess you havent owned the max long enough as the stock rotors are too thin as it is, turning them is really useless since they will just warp easier anyways. If you dont believe me ask around, many will say the same thing.

OEM, is the best all around pad from what i have heard, OK dusting, good bite, good life time. Aftermarket pads depending on what you get, will usually last you just as long as OEM pads.

As for BBKs, they are alot of money..tooOOOooo expensive for 90% of the people on the org. I would sudjest looking into the 300Z calipers and 2k5 rotors with MattBlemcos brackets. You can also get cusom brackets to fit Cobra rotors on there as well since the cobra rotors are 13" compared to the 12.6" 2k5 rotors. Not that big ofa difference if you ask me..but i would go with the cobra powerslots...

This kit will cost you less than a grand...and they consist of STOCK OEM parts wich are VERY easy to find compared to the expensive BBK provided by most companies...

 

you didnt read what i wrote i suggested the brembo rotors
and the oem will do u fine till u get the money together
