    brake pads to go with Adams Inf Rotors?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    my order of slotted and dimpled rotors from "Adamas Infamous Rotors" should be in monday for my 3.0 . I dont know anything about brakes, anybody have some recommendations on a good set? Right now im getting alot of brake dust so i want that cut down. I do alot of city driving, if that matters.

    Hawks HPS's i guess are the most popular choice.

    Hawks are a great pad, I have the Hawk Ceramics and if you are just mainly a city driver then they will give you the least dust. Hawk HPS bite harder faster opposed to the ceramics that bite hard after they are warmed up, but in the end both are much better than stock.

    Also keep in mind the HPS give a little bit more dust than the ceramics.

    Yup! I only had them on for about a week because I went BBK but they were very grabby and no noise.

    Re: brake pads to go with Adams Inf Rotors?

    i hated my hawk ceramics, virtually no grab at first. i think i could have used brillo pads and gotten more bite out of them.... i couldnt even get ABS to activate with the hawk ceramics........... hawk HPS, carbotec bobcats and axxis all seem pretty popular... we all want to cut dust down but it wasnt worth the performance loss to me... i installed some ferodo ds2500s about three weeks ago and am very very impressed... lots of bite and they dont fade even after lots of braking.. there is more dust of course but ive had them three weeks and only washed the car once and rims still look pretty good...

    whatever you decide www.raceshopper.com has great deals, put me down as a referral!
