cobra brake pads

[hookups333]

Do yall have any recommendations on some brake pads? I know I dont want the most expensive but I dont want the cheapest either.

Hawk HPS--best all around pad i have used.

+1 On the hawks, I also liked the green stuff pads.

The nice thing about the OEM pads is that they cover the rivet on the back of the outside pad. The Hawks show the ugly rivet.

Rivets? I have hawks on right now and I dont see rivets.

bimmertech- How long does it take for the HPS to fade? Also, does they seem to eat up rotors any faster than the stockers?

i would say that if you are gonna do a bunch of autocross(i think you do) then you might want to look at the HP plus. the HPS are a good all around street pad but will fade on a more technical setup.

as far as rotors go i always replace rotors with pads. cutting rotors is a big time no-no in my book.
