Geez, the guy tries to help you out and offer a hookup lol.
I replaced mine with OEM pads because:
1. I wanted decent bite without tons of dust
2. Fitment is perfect
3. They aren't that expensive
4. They are quiet
Aftermarket isn't always the answer for everyone. With most aftermarket you basically have two options...hard compound that lasts forever at the expense of braking, or a more aggressive compound that is louder and dusty. There are different degrees of course, and I'm all for performance, but for my daily driver, OEM was the right balance of stuff. It all depends on what you are looking for.
are you offering a cookie? Ill take what ever i can get.
the reason i get them for free is becasue i used to work at a parts place and t my old boss is on his way out the door and doesnt give a shit about the store. I dont go inpften becasue i dont need much shit. im not about to go in there and ask him for 36 brake rotors for 98-02 accords.
My way of thinking, when tuing my Daily Driver, is if something is about to go, i replace it with parts above OEM. Thus gradually bringing the car up to levels above OEM. My car stops much better now than it ever did with OEM.
