Front brake pad recomendations?

[broke7]

Heard some squeeling when backing out of my driveway yesterday, so I yanked the front wheels off and the squeelers are touching on my right front wheel. Time for new pads and turning the rotor, this has been a very hard 10,500 miles.


Any suggestions on pads?? I am keeping the stock rotors for now.

Try the Hawk HPS pads. They seem to be very popular around here.

Just stay away from SBS they suck squeal like a pig and way dirtier then stock. I have Portfield R4S pads and they work good for me.

joe from MUSTANG MAGIC is really into brakes and handling. he told me to go with performance friction pads. they sell them at autozone. good luck!!

Autozone 16.99. Didn't notice any difference from stock.

Porterfield R4-S for better than stock performance but I would go with the Carbotech Bobcat in your climate.

I like the Porterfield R4S - better than stock, very low dust, and no squeal.

Where can you get the Portfield R4S pads and how much are they?

Good question. I have Baer rotors on order front and rear. Anyone know which is the best rear pad set with minimum dust? (Or has grey brake dust instead) :thumbsup:

Checked the site. They only show up to '01 Cobras. Do they fit? Also do the rears fit??? :??:

That is what is on my car. All SN-95 Cobras have the same rear brakes set-up including the 00R. All-95 Cobras except the 00R have the same front brake set-up.
