Brake Pad Purchase

[husker boxster]

Brakes are a very important component of your car.

All pads probably have to meet a minimum set of stds for stopping ability. The question becomes, do they meet quality stds? Without knowing the brand, because of the price chances are we know where they came from. Quality is not always the priority of a loss leader. Do you want to chance your life and others for the savings of a few bucks?

I'm all for saving some bucks when it makes sense. This is not one of those times. Let someone else prove me wrong.

And good for you on pinpointing how you drive your car and buying components to that driving style. There are a myriad of pads available depending on how you plan to drive. And if you plan to do the change yourself, you'll find it takes longer to get the car up on stands and the tires off than it takes to change the pads - that's after doing it a few times. It's a very simple process. Good luck and have fun.
