Brake Pads

Post by alkemist on Wed Apr 14, 2010 10:16 pm

Gonna need to replace my brake pads soon. What are some good ones for s197?

I was looking at the hawk performance ceramic @ american muscle, but that was the only brand they had. They are a little pricey but if they are worth it, I'll get em. Need these for a daily driver.

honestly for a daily driver, a quality set of ceramic pads at your local parts store will do.

I thought about the hawk pads but ended up going to advance auto. I think I paid about $50 for the pads

Sounds like the route I'll be going then. Anyone familiar with advance auto parts? They are the closest auto store here.

Yes for a daily driver i would do the same. Just use ceramic to reduce the brake dust and cleaning of the rims

Just go to the parts section and tell them what kind of car and the year and they will let you know what they have. you will be looking for the ceramic pads. When I got mine the guy gave me 2-3 different choices. I asked what he would suggest and went with those.
