What Pads to replace Stock Brembos

Hi guys,

I was wondering wat brake pads I can get to replace worn brembo pads?

The brembos cost too much to replace, can I use Project MU or Pagid?

Any recommendation for pads would be great.

Cheers!

I run EBC Red Stuff ceramic pads and they are great, low dust and they are quiet. Only about 75.00 for the rear an 100.00 for the front.

I like Hawk HPS and Pagid Blacks for street replacement pads with no track time.

Some people complain about the HPS pads, but I've NEVER had a problem with MANY cars running them. Take every review with a grain of salt. Meaning, just install them correctly and you'll be fine.

project Mu NS pads, they are less than $90 for either front/rear on lancershop, good street pad...very quiet/low brake dust, very forgiving on the stock rotors which is what you are really looking for too

The Ferodo 2500's are slightly more aggressive then Hawks and Pagid Blacks.

IMO not nearly enough for true track duty, but if do you fade these on the street, then you'd better sloooow down.

I like them. Good pedal feel, pretty good on the rotors, quiet, etc.

Hawk's are great as stock replacement pads, a little better and a lot cheaper.
