For street pads, Axxis Ultimates work very well. Getting off brake dust is a matter of spray and rinse. $80 for the fronts, a bit cheaper for the rears (your stock rear pads should be fine for any type of street driving).

Best for the money? Brembo blanks & AEM pads. The rotors are around $100 for a pair, pads are around $70? I think.

brembo blanks would be around $75 shipped for the fronts, and $65ish for the rears. ive seen the front AEM pads for $40-50.

as soon as i get enough, im getting those 2 things.

check out groupbuycenter.com or nopi.com

Are Brembo BLANKS just normal rotors or are they cross-drilled and/or slotted? Will crossdrilled and slotted rotors kill your pads even if they are AEM pads?

Blanks are OEM replacement/normal smooth rotors.

Slotted rotors eat pads for lunch.

Cross-drilled...well, we won't go there.

Tell that to the H-T ITR guys who splurged $1500+ for spoon CALIPERS. Yeap, just the caliper.

Do brembo blanks increase your stopping power at all, since they are just oem replacements? Thanx for answering my Q's
