its acceptable to use them outside of the stoptech system? these are oem replacements?

I got them installed about a week ago, along with axxis deluxe pads. No more shimmy!

which axxis pads? do you have any issues with squeal/dusting?

Diny · 22nd January 2008, 01:46

I got them installed about 2 weeks ago actually and yesterday was the first time I washed the car since (it was already filthy as heck), so I can't tell you about dusting just yet. I don't notice any squealing, but I'm not driving with the windows down, so I can't hear any. I'm such a big help on this, aren't I?

The pads are the Axxis Deluxe Advanced. I also got the sensors changed (as they should when new pads are installed).

go with the axxis ultimate pads, worth the little extra money for the increased bite. No noise, but they still dust a little...

I have those pads with the stoptech slotted rotors and they are delicious...

go with the Axxis Ultimate pads, worth the extra bucks for the increased bite... they are quiet and dust wayyyyy less than OEM pads.

I also have the Stoptech slotted rotors and this setup is delicious...

seems like they are cheaper than oem as well... my concerns are since this is mainly for street, i do not want the pads to squeal at every light or everytime i hit the brakes...
