New alternative frt. pads for IS350
All I know about the company is seeing them on "Dream Car Garage" on SpeedTV but they seem to have a good product. Ordered AND shipped ,Satisfied GranSport Ceramic front pads suppossedly High friction, lowdust. $109 +$15.00 shipping. I'm tired of waiting for Hawks, just thought I'd give 'em a try. They're not a sponsor so just google "Satisfied Brakes"if you're interested.

their website says yes but I wasn't even sure about mine 'till they were shipped. They list front and rear pads for the 250 and 350 in two types. The non ceramics are 6ty something $'s for the fronts.

I tired ordering the Cermaic Pro pads from them about four months ago and they didn't have them and they didn't know when they would be able to buy them. I've had the Ceramic Pro pads before on my G35 and I loved them. No brake dust!
I don't know how the Pro pads compare to the GranSport Ceramic pads.

Pads installed. They seem to stop well, and have virtually no dust so far and they should last longer than the stockers. I've bedded them in and only have driven a few miles though. I only had about 4000 miles on the rotors, so I just sanded them with 160 grit paper to try to remove the old compound. I havn't seen or used the Lexus low dust pads but if you can get them under warranty I'd say go that way. I just wanted to try some after market pads and I haven't stomped on them really hard yet. They are a nice product, they even send a little tube of moly grease for the backing plates. I'll repost in a couple of weeks and update on dust and stopping ability.
