I'm going to replace my pads soon and I was wondering if the pre 06 models and 06 models share the same pads???

I know 06+ non brembo models have slightly bigger rotor so...

I'm looking for DD pads that will have stock feeling(especially @ initial press), low dust and low to no noise.. slightly better performance wont hunt too!!

if anyone have/used/using EBC green stuffs, can you tell me how is it? review???

and any other suggestions for 06 Non-brembo brake pads????

 

pre 06 pads won't work on 06-08 models.

 

^ +1!

Order for the 06-08 years, and greenstuff should be a good choice for you. I have the Redstuff on an 03-05 non-brembo DD and they work great, though where I live it's very hot which seems to help get the brakes into optimal breaking temperatures quite quickly. You're in SoCal so I'd expect the greenstuff pads should be perfect for you, and a reasonable price at that.

 

yeah i'm in Riverside.. very hot place.. reaching triple digits all summer!!

 

Why not stay with the OEM pads? I love mine. I dont have any issues with dust or noise and the stopping power is more than adequate. I really dont see what people are complaining about so much regarding the brake dust. My wheels have very little (if any) dust whenever I wash the car (every other week or so).

Maybe they changed something for the 06 models? I know they increased the rotor size, but I dont know if they changed anything really with the pads.
