    Default Need advice on brake pads

    I have brembo drilled rotors and I was wondering what pads would make a good combo. I am looking for some that are slightly better than stock, I don't want racing pads. Thanx-

    I just bought some rayasbestos QS plus break pads. They were recommended to me by everyone. I too have the brembo cross-drilled rotors. However I dont have either things installed yet. Waiting for a open weekend hehe.

    Default Used Raybestos, liked them.

    Per a recommendation from Bill R, I put Raybestos pads on my wife's Lexus and they have worked great. The next set for my e34 will be Raybestos.
