Brake Job in Dallas

Anyone know the best place to have brake pads replaced on the Evo in Dallas? I've got 27000 miles right now... should be about time to change. Also, what is the best place to buy aftermarket pads?

Your driveway is the best place to get pads changed, it is extremely easy, and there are several venodrs on-line that can help you get the pads. Check the "how to/installations" forum to do it correctly.

if you can't figure it out or don't want to mess with it, i can give you a hand. with two people it will literally take less then 45 minutes. if you want to take it a step further and go with some stainless brake lines and replace your fluid too, let me know and we can get that done as well.

Brembo pads are the easiest in the world. I even managed it on my own and I'm a danger to myself and those around me when it comes to this ****. Worst case, I'm certain any number of the local EVO drivers here will help you.
