I've been happy with Pagids, they make lots of fun brake dust to clean.

Default If the previous owner cut out the sensors, couldn't you just get ANY pad and not plug the sensor in?

I mean, your car is still gonna stop...

yeah, but im just saying that becuase this way pads WITHOUT sensors are cheaper than those w/ sensors thats why i was wondering since every time i enter my car into an autoparts website it brings up pads with the sensors none without

Default Re: what brake pads..

Did the PO cut the sensor wires from the pads and leave the connector or did they cut the connector off too?

Pagids or PBR ULT Ceramic are good.

I also use Pagids. BTW, you probably won't find any front pads w/o the sensors.
