First I want to say I'm very sorry for such a trivial and probably answered over and over question, but I wanted to be sure before ordering.

Are the base non vented rotor and vented rotor's pads the same?

Everything I've been looking at leads to yes, but like with the ladies, you can never be too sure!

Again, sorry about such a trivial question. This is going on the back of my Miata (TII caliper swap with 11 inch Wilwood rotors using Martin at Monster Miata's BBK).

Also, pad recommendation? 2400 pound dry weight, 340+/- RWHP, fun street and occasional autocross. Minor dusting is fine, but noise is annoying. I'm running Wilwoods 4 pots and BP10 pads up front as reference. Hawk HB158F.515 pads are looking tempting unless anyone says otherwise.

Thanks everyone!
Mike

 

Yes, the pads are the same.

 

Thanks!
