Brake Pads and Rotors

Guest · Post by **Guest** » 05 Nov 2004, 07:44

I'm sure this has been posted on here, but I'm just too lazy to search for it, so forgive me.

First things - 97 850 T-5

I need to change my front rotors and pads and I was considering the dustless pads on the ipd site. I wanted to know people's opinions on these pads and experiences they've had. In addition I need to replace the rotors, so I was wondering what's a good mid-range rotor. I'm not looking to break the bank, but it seems as if the stock rotors are too simple and not effective.

Thanks

Mike

Stick with the stock pads unless you change the rotors. You won't like the squeal that occurs. If you change the rotors, the IPD pads are good. I have drilled Brembo rotors, this combo really hauls you down from high speed. Initial bite is slightly less than the stock pads, so you have to stab the pedal with a leetle more effort.
