Question Brake pads ?

I just bought a set of cross-drilled/slotted rotors for my 350.
I'm sure this is an issue that has been discussed many times before...but up till now, I haven't been too concerned about it.

What brand/choice of brake pads do you recommend to go with these ?...and where do you suggest getting these from?
I usually buy my racing pads from Porterfield.

I'm looking for something a little more agressive than stock,
rotor-friendly, but with less brake dust.

I'll be doing no track events (that's what the 240Z is for )
so these will for mostly street driving.

Suggestions?
Thanks,
zcardave

I would suggest you contact: www.raceshopper.com Ask them about Hawk HPS pads. Hard to beat their prices.

Thanks for the recommendation.
I've used Hawk pads before, and you're right.
For the money, they're hard to beat.

Thanks again,

Default I'll have to agree about the Hawk HPS...

I put them on my roadster and the brake dust has been reduced significantly.

I got them through a club sponsor....

SPL Parts

Tell then I sent you and they should take care of you.
