Default Are there any sales on brake bits right now (rotors/pads)?

Its getting to be time for new rotors and pads. I haven't done them on my S yet. On my A4 I used slotted discs and Hawk HPS pads, which I liked quite a bit. Probably going the same route for the S4, unless there is a better reccomendation for street use. I looked at EdyJun's directory and read the background, though there does not seem to be a definitive selection for replacements, so I'm going to stick with personal experience, unless someone has a strong suggestion, or if there is a great price on some other set up.

I've seen Mintex RedBox pads mentioned a number of times, but I had terrible experiences with those on my A4...

Default Have you tried calling Wicked?

I think a few people recently got some killer BBKs with him recently. I bought my Brembo GT 355 about 4 months ago for $2500. Likely not available at that price. You can call Creative Autoworks and see. They are in San Diego. The also have a websit.
