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.
