First, I have a question regarding the OE rotors: Assuming they are not at/near minimum thickness, can/should they be machined before I replace pads? In the past, on one piece cast iron rotors I would think the answer to this question would be yes, but on these, I'm not sure.
Second, I'm looking for a pad that meets the following requirements and welcome suggestions/recommendations on brand/compound (ceramic?): - Spirited street driving, no track duty
- Performance comparable to OE pad
- Quality / dependability comparable to OE pad
- Competitively priced
- Low dust
- Low noise
- Low rotor wear
Thanks in advance for suggestions/recommendations! |
Stoptech ceramics are low dust and oem comparable
