Default TOM's Brake pads

how are these brake pads? I've only seen their logo on jap race cars n stuff but anyone have em on their accord? autodynamic.com is sellin em so I wanted ot kno how good they are because I was gonna get Axxis Ultimates but they were to hard to get all the places that sell em have non secure ordering..so its either gonna be Axxis metal masters or Tom's

i thought tom's was dedicate to toyotas only?? just run the aem/nissin pads, you'll be fine. plus they're cheaper. or get the endless ones, they bite better.

I thought so too but then I saw it for sale at autodynamic.com for our accords, they're about the same price as the Nissin/AEM pads anyways. Endless is a lil bit too much don't wanna pay 125 for a set of pads that are gonna run out quick

with either one you'll be fine. just install them correctly with the anti-squeal grease on the back and you'll be happy. you can do this yourself too, only takes 45 min. or so.

Tom's was a Toyota only until like 2 years ago they started to make brake pads and springs for other cars. They are 0-500 temp so theya re really good for street use.
