What cheap quiet Brake pads to buy?
So I was recommended by a friend to buy the Hawk HP Plus pads and wow are they loud! Horrible for daily driving. I was looking on eBay and they have two brake pads I am interested in purchasing. Stoptech street pads or project mu bestop brake pads. Anyone have experience with these? I am looking for cheap super quiet pads! Thanks.

I ran the Girodisc magic pads. Affordable and perfect for DD.

stoptech street pads were really quiet for me. Out of those two I would pick those, they are a great pad for dd and autox.

On your hawk pads, every now and then spray your rotors with brake cleaner and wipe them down. Gotten rid of my noise on my hp+ pads

Stoptech, but don't get them from ebay. Use a real vendor. KNSbrakes is on here and very knowledgeable about brakes.

Yes we are here, the stoptechs would be well suited for your daily driver, quiet, good bite etc.

A buddy of mine put some of those wagner thermo quiets from advance auto parts. They are quiet, perfectly fine for dd status.
