Help me to choose rear break pads
« on: August 08, 2017, 06:31:42 AM »
Hello!
My local dealet wants 65usd for a pair of break pads, sounds expensive to me.

What ever you do , do not get GOLDFREN pads, they are very aggressive and will eat away your rotors.

They claim their pads are rotor friendly but in reality they are not.

They should also be available in Sweden. Do the research for swedish dealers. 32usd for shipping is not accceptable.

I tried to google it and the swedish reseller bounced me back to the english ebc site with the high shipping cost, so i will go to my dealer and get the originals.
Better safe than sorry, brakes are important ☺
