Default TireRack is amazing.
I placed an order for brake pads online. 10 minutes later a rep calls to say the pads are back ordered. He discusses the alternative pads, and he REALLY knows what he's talking about. I end up going with Hawk HPS, $144 for the fronts.

Every experience I've had with TireRack has been phenomenal.

PS: Also ordered new Zimmerman rotors for the fronts. Looking forward to doing the install myself. ECS Tuning also has a nice web site and email confirmation.

Default Maybe next week. Everything seems cheaper in MO anyway.
If it didn't cost so much to ship it, I'd store it in MO every winter!

Default Even with complex fitment (like brake pads), their system does a great job sorting...
... out what you need. So many sites, just say, "Here are three different things, one of which will fit. Buy the one that fits. No returns."

Default Yeah. They deserve the high marks they get
Customer service is outstanding, as well, which I find to be more important.
