Stock replacement break pads???

What brand do you guys recommend? RB sells Ferodo and Hawk. The Ferodos are more for competition than street. What other good brands are there?

I recommend that you get brake pads...not break pads.

Stick with stock pads if you're not racing. Comp pads are very hard and will eat rotors. Spend the leftover money on slurpees (bad joke based on your avitar).

I type too fast and sometimes misspell words. That's the worst one to misspell because it actually spells another word that sounds the same but means something totally different.

Yea, I know what you mean. I used to manage a test equipment calibration lab. We were always seeing and saying the word "due" as in "this piece of test equipment is due for calibration". I was the night shift manager, and one night a day shift guy left me a note that said something was "dew" for calibration.

All you really need is a good semi-metalic stock replacement.
