Brake Pads
Yoo,
Whats up guys, whats going on long time no bitch. :banana: I got a bit of a pickle, I currently have about 60-65% left on my brake pads, but when I bought the car from the dealership, they put on these WICKED cheap ones that, at the slightest tap, give off a ****load of dust. I want to bump up to a better brand but I don't have the money to get a Cobra kit and what not... any suggestions?

I don't really care about the breaking... I usually can gauge the response time pretty well and I'm not usually hauling ass ALL-THE-TIME... so just brake pads that give off less dust are good for me.

OEM brake pads are actually very good. Quiet not a lot of dust. Just get some oem pads and be happy.

Im pretty sure that the OEM pads for the newer mustangs like his are ceramic from the factory.
