haha will do. u think they will have the front brake pads and front rotors i need?
So do the Hawk HPS pads have less dust than the stockers? If so, is the performance of them significantly less or worse? Looking for a set that is good for daily/occasional spirited driving
My questions exactly. I want some pads with less dust (cause I HATE cleaning my wheels), but sitll decent performance.

does anyone make a lightweight floating rotor for the stock caliper?

I just put on a set of front HPS pads last sunday that I got from Ken. I think they have a lot more initial bite than the stock pads do. I've been driving on them for a week now, it does seem there is less dust than stock.
BS dude! Please don't spread false comments here. You think, But you don't know. Let me educated you. Our pads are made by Ferodo. Hawk Hps have less dust but they don't bite at all. OEM pads are 10 times better than Hawk HPS. I have the hps and do not perform at all. OEM (aka) Ferodo pads will not fade on auto x or braking hard cause the Ferodo compound is made for extreme braking. You ever wonder why you have dust on your wheels? You can always get the hawk if you don't like the dust, But it will never perform as the OEM
OEM pads for $150

I agree. I have HPS on my car for street use and compared to oem pads there is virtually no dust ( why I bought them ). They are fine daily driver use, but under hard braking the oem pads performed better. I'm keeping them in case I go auto-xing again.......

Where'd you get them? How much it cost you? Did you get front and rears? The dust issue is way worse on the fronts than rears with the OEM pads IMO.

Certainly. The fronts do most of the braking. The dust is a hassle, but from what I've read here, the OEM pads are the cat's meow, pajamas, whatever. Apparently, ceramic pads wear the rotors faster. Not sure that's true. Kinda makes sense to a layman.

who's got the carbotech pads (ax6 or babcat)... they are pretty good from all reports
