    Best place for brake pads?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    My brake pad sensor light came on the other day...(O)...so I guess it's time to get replacements. What are people going with and where's the best place to get them? Also, how long do I have before the pad is completely gone? tia

    Try Ecstuning.com or Awe-tuning.com, they have great products.

    yeah, they are kinda squeeky, but rather good... Carbotech Bobcat are the best from what i hear, but pricey

    I bought my Mintex from www.germanautoparts.com Very good guys, and very good service. I think the prices are great too. That is, if you can call any price good for auto parts anyway...

    Later,
    Mike

    I've been running a set of the PBR Ultimates that ECS sells. They are a great daily driver pads with no noise and great cold bite. They make slightly more dust than the mintex reds but, still way less than OEM.

    I'm a picky bastard when it comes to car parts so, you can be sure these pads are worth the $$.
