Haha when you need that extra bite is when it really counts. Never have I rear ended someone and I hope it stays that way lol.

Damnit I was just about to buy these but ItzFilyO quickly reminded me of the same issue I had with the Akebonos on my IS. Much less brake dust but there was no BITE on slow speeds....arg!


I cant take this damn brake dust anymore!

Anyone else have any ideas?

U should be fine if u get new rotors along with the pads or turn ur rotors. I think.

But there is that rust ring with aftermarket pads cause it doesn't cover the whole disc surface. It's the little things that bug me.
