hi guys i'm at 36k on my evo already and i need new brake pads, i was thinking of getting brakes with little brake dust, at least lesser than the ones from the OEM brakes , low noise levels, and easy on the rotors, i've been reading on a few but want to get some opinion from you guys


Endless brakes
-MX72
-NX97
-SS-H
-SS-Y
Project Mu
- B -spec

i want to avoid hawks and stoptech plz :] thanks again guys!

 

Girodisc magic pads sound perfect for you

 

endless +1

 

whats the main concern with the stoptechs? I'm still trying to decide between stoptech and ferodo ds2500 (which are about twice the cost of the stoptechs)

 

What's wrong with the Stoptech's? They a great DD pad and don't make any noise.

 

I am currently using the project mu b force and they are actually pretty good. The only reason I am using them because they were basically given to me. There is minimal brake dust compared to the stock ones. The only complaint is that they will make noise at slow braking but on high braking they work like they are supposed to! I usually hit up the canyon's here in California and I really recommend these pads.

Feels good to have clean rims for a whole week.

 

Another good pad to consider is the Race Brake 500. They are extremly low dust and bite great. Not near the cost of the ds2500.. Alot of people on here run either though with good results.

 

This (RacingBrake ET500). I had them in my IX and plan to either get them again for my X or maybe try the EBC Redstuffs.

 

nothing wrong with stoptechs guys, just personal preference lol and the other reason why i said not those because i already know they're good, but i hear hawks give off a lot of break dust from a friend who's running them.. i just wanna get my hands wet on what options i have, keep em coming guys! :] and thanks again!

 

So you are purposely avoiding a brake pad that you know is good and very affordable???

 

noo, i shoulded reworded differently, i meant i just wanna avoid answers like those two, i still wanna explore my options, and wanna know if the higher end brakes that are claimed for both light track and street use really worth the 200 per pair of brakes, so i'm just trying to get some of your opinions on these brakes and other suggestions on brakes i've never heard of and what your review

 

I know you don't want to hear it, but I run StopTechs and have for years. I autoX with them as well, No Complaints at all and they are VERY affordable.

If you want to spend more money for a pad that you really don't need by all means. But I will tell you this, if all you do is canyon carving? the Stoptechs are all you really need.

I agree with the HAWKS. I have run 2 pairs, the HP and the HPS they suck something bad IMO. Noisy, and chewed up my rotors. I will never buy them agian.

I think I'm going to go with the the stoptechs or the RB ET500. I'll save my money for other upgrades.

Is either of the two choices less harsh on the rotors or longer lasting?

 

RB ET500s are perfect for you. low dust, great initial bite, no fade, no noise. I run the ET800s all around but thats prob a little more aggressive than what your looking for. look at M.P.G for great prices and service. GL

 

If your wanting the RB ET500, contact Adam from MAperformance. Is the best price you'll find for them. I buy 97% of my stuff thru them. It looks like your new, MAperformance is a awesome vendor that is on these forums. 1-888-627-3736... chose place new order and ask for Adam. Let him know your a member on here.
