Default Brake Pads

Looking for a nice set of pads for my 240, I've got a set of noname drilled / slotted rotors off of eBay because at least one of the rotors has a nice sized dig in it. Any recommendations on a nice set of street pads?

I don't think those drilled and slotted rotors are a good idea. Specially off ebay.

used them on my last 2 cars, integra, and wrx, and on my current setup , no problems at all. i didnt buy the super duper cheap shits, and they have worked well, cost like 275 with stainless lines. i think they were dtr or magnum, one of the two. i have used both and no complaintes.

I thought the same thing, but if they start to warp or whatnot I'll just buy a set of brembo blanks and call it a day.

it's all good...I've used/use now $25 rotors from pepboys. I used $25 autozone rotors for HPDEs. they will be fine.

In the future i would avoid drilled rotors though.


oh yeah, did I mention hawp HPS FTW...at least on the street. If you are taking the car to the track, find some ferodo ds2500s

Do you track the car in anyway?

Also, I think you should read up on slotted rotors and it'll explain to you why they are useless in todays world.
