There's a thread about getting pads from autozone if you are interested in saving money. (I think $40-50 per pad?) They were a long term test and held up fine for plenty of miles from street use. There's also a few threads on braking tips too. (ex: don't apply a lot of pressure when stopped)

From: somewhere testing various tires, brakes, and suspensions.


One MILLION Dollars.



JK - search around. Depends on how hard you abuse them. My stockers got me 20k, my Satisfied Gransport GS6s, 30k.

I just put on Gransport GS5s (more track pad than street). Cost was $240 for all four.

My Review of GS5s here

Now THAT is funny!

And yea, pad life is heavily dependent on your right foot. For comparison, my roomie and I both drove Z's in college, he needed new pads at 20k miles, I didn't until 30k miles. Of course, I drove like a grandma compared to him...
