I need brake pads all around.

Anyone here knows a place with good prices on brake pads for our cars?

search the forum. this has been discussed ad nauseum.

I suggest topbrakes.com for some Porterfield R4S's.

I suggest to stay away from parts.com for OE pads/rotors as it appears they purposely misquote their prices just to reel you in, then once you place your order they come back with a 'correction' - and the prices go up.

I don't think they have changed this practice so I purposely avoid any place that uses 'bait & switch' tactics.

The R4S are great and very quiet!

Thanks.
I contacted a couple vendors and I'm waiting on replies.

If anyone had a good place in Canada, it might be cheaper for me.

I sell porterfields all day. Let me know if you would like a set and a shipping quote to the great north.

No dust and no squeal is all good.

Does your brake pads have more friction than stock? I really don't want to lose any braking power over stock.

As long as the pads brake as hard or harder than stock and that they don't eat through rotors, I'm willing to consider.

I run Centric Posi-Quiet Semi-Metallic pads on my 507. Less dust than OEM and good initial bite

RacingBrake

Our brake pads are comparable to stock pads,
they will give you a good overall bite close or better.

On topbrakes.com, when selecting C63, what is the difference between non-P31 1 iron disk vs 2 iron? How do I know which one I have?

Mort

1 piece rotor or 2 piece rotor. The 2 piece is with the P31 package. I don't think it probably makes any difference buying pads and I don't see any 2 piece rotors even if you pick the 2 piece iron disks. There is a lot of info on brakes on this site if you search it out.

I have some Endless pads
