Re: Brake pad recommendation

For just a daily?

I used the Wagner ThermoQuiet ceramic pads and their coated rotors on my girlfriend's 99, seem to work well and were reasonably priced

99stockcivic will become famous soon enough
Re: Brake pad recommendation

I know this isn't the cheapest answer, but I used EBC YellowStuff on my civics. It seems to make for a shorter stop, and they are what I use on all my cars, so I am probably biased. But they do work great.

Re: Brake pad recommendation

I use OE pads and a platinum type rotor usually.

For the Pilot I recently went with EBC Green Stuff pads and rotors and am liking them so far.Quiet and they have a great initial bite when cold.

Re: Brake pad recommendation

when i had my 2005 i used Wagner thermo quiet pads with ATE rotors,

rotors.....

http://www.ate-brakes.com/products/d...ate-powerdisc/

i found it was a good combo that worked well and lasted a long time,

never go cheap on rotors, you will regret it,

if you want to cheap out somewhere, cheap out on the pads and buy good rotors,

a god set of rotors should last an easy 3-4 sets of pads
