i ordered my new rotors this passed weekend from autoanything. What break pads should i get with them? I was going to go for the hawk hps but i hear they get pretty noisy after a while.. am i better off going with ceramic pads or the ebc green stuff.. i dont want something that will end up damaging the new rotors.

 

dang those are sick bro!

 

Nice choice man, they look real nice. I have the EBC Green Stuff pads sitting in their box for about 6 months, still haven't gotten them on yet, I'm waiting for my other ones to die out. I've only heard good things about EBC brake pads and I've also really only heard good about the Hawk pads too, so either way you should be good.

 

They look nice, but according to the website they are pretty salty. I hope they work out for you.

 

Green stuff pads are awsome for street/track use. They produce low amounts of brake dust and minimum rotor wear. The red stuff pads are more for serious auto crossers, and they need to build up some heat before they start stopping at full potential.

 

Hmmm , Ive always sworn by hawk hps's and Ive not had them get noisy . Nice rotors . Thats next on my list , my stockers have nearly 50K miles on them .

 

what are the green stuff pads made of? I was told by the break company to go with a carbon type pad... i thought ceramic was better ?

 

Those are D.B.A rotors, correct?

Yes, Hawk is an excellent pad. Not really noisy, or dusty. They have an excellent bite and are decently priced. We have them in stock and ready to move. We have sold tons to Balt and IRL fellas.

I've installed about a hundred sets of ebc's. They are the softest (green,) so they give you a very progressive feel and are the easiest on your discs. They "feel" grippy. On the downside, they will wear out faster than the Hawk pads, which will probably do better from multiple high speed stops, as they are a little harder.

Both are good. Neither are noisy or dusty IMHO. It depends on what you are looking for.

Vesrah is my favorite pad, but I don't know if they make them for our ride.

 

I got the DBA's also, The 4000xs Kangaroo Paws they are great! The pads I'm Running are the Porterfield Street Performance Pads(Carbon Kevlar) No Dust!






The dust is Very Minumal & the Pads are Awesome!

 

dude you have the cleanest car ever lol

 

He garages it and wipes it down after every drive.

 

i had ebc greens on my alero, was goos stuff

 

i got my rotors in last week.. hopefully i can get them installed tomorrow, i will post pics if i do.
