Shims = unsprung weight = bad

 

Rather than creating a new topic I'm going to bump this thread. I ordered front and rear Dba T-Slots with Hawk Hps pads. I just want to clarify some things before I put everything on. I'm assuming the Hawk pads come with shims already, but should I buy Oem shims from the dealer and replace the ones on the Hawk pads with the Oem ones? I'm just getting mixed reviews from going through this thread. I just don't want to have to keep taking things apart over and over again.
