[QUOTE=TheeVOoNE]Gruppe-s is one of the best vendors I know and the only vendor I deal with for my evo needs. For this reason, I know them well and I think it is very childish of you for posting such insulting thread that tells people not to buy so and so from so and so. It should have been your responsiblity to check out before buying. It is basic knowledge that all CM pads squeaks. It is like buy tires, you can't simply return it after running and realizing it is noisy..too bad.. What do you except them to do, just bend over, it is used now. You should have done your HW before buying. I know this might sound harsh but this is reality and how the market works. Hopefully you get everything resolved.
[/QUOTE i wont buy from them again,so it dont matter

Like i said before.. GROW UP and try to your solve issues like real grown up. You were the one saying, "anyway thanks for all of the replys,id rather have neg comments back then none at all." So stop being a hypo"****"... i mean hypocrite.. I was just stating my mind. Don't get all butt hurt cause you know I'm right.. I don't go returnin' my used boxers to Polo because after wearing it a few times and realize it was not up to par with other companies...

took you that long to come up with such immature comment.. GROW UP and read some books. Illiteracy is your problem, is it hindering you daily life as well? I bet it is, that is why u lack the abilty to research before u buy an item..

We did have a customer with another bad noise, and it subsided after putting some miles on the car. For the custome in question, we have some different shims to try on the car , and yes the factory ones were put back on. It is pretty annoying. Good luck with resolving your issue with Grouppe S, it sounds like they are more then willing to help you out.

You did say first that you would send out a new set because of all the complaints you were having with them,I have the pm you sent me if you need me to post it?then you say they are out of stock,then when they come in stock you say you spoke to fernondop and they wouldnt give you a credit for mine,so you tell me to charge another set on my cc,then send the defected one to you,so you can send them to fernondo to find out if they feel that they are defected.sure like they wouild admit it and credit you and then youn would credit me.No thanks,this was not an attempt to get anything from you cal this was just to warn anyone else.So you dont screw them also,P'o

If they said "ok, the pads you bought from us were in fact defective pads", then we will fully refund you that extra "collateral charge". However, after I explained this to you, you simply hung up on us and I haven't heard from you since.
Again, we definitely want to help you out. So please give us call and speak to our manager in regards to this brake pad issues. We would love to find a way to remedy this situations and to improve our service for the EVO community.

I'm a business owner myself, everyday when I wake up 'till I go to bed I make sure that I did my best to serve my clients, but whatever you do to deliver the best service, there will always be someone that is not quite happy. But that's a fact of life, for the folks at Gruppe-S..... 
, for you my friend (the unhappy customer) try to resolve issues without trying to create new ones. And please try not to use vulgar words about somebody's gf.
thanks

Thanks, I use to live in JC (5yrs....in the Hts, WestSide and Greenville areas) and was born and raised in Manila PI, case in point, try to resolve things in a diplomatic way, burning bridges especially with good vendors will limit your possibilities to get good deals for your future Evo projects.

Are these pads really called "Fernondo"? I have heard of Ferrodo 2500 but not the other. Sport Compact Car uses the Ferrodo 2500 pads on their project Evo and claimed that they were awesome street pads with no squeal or fade. They also mentioned that if you were into more racing than street driving to step up to the 3000 series but that they would squeek under light braking.

The fact that high performance pads make noize does not make them defective.
No your puffing your chest on online that your from Jersey...........................
I thought this was about brake pads..............
Now that I think about it, what is the whole point of this thread? You want to keep people from buying from Gruppe S?
Grow up. Have a beer and take a nap.
