Advice on brake pads
 

What are you LS1 guys running. I am swapping the complete LS1 car braking system next week and I need to get pads. I'm using the stock rotors and calipers if this makes a difference. Any info is appreciated.

To be honest .. AutoZone "el-cheapo" pads and rotors have served me well.

Get ceramic pads, they are high performnace pads, ike NAPA or AutoZone would have them. ceramic emit almost no brake dust and they stop pretty good. I still have the stock pads in the back and they are making more brake dust then my front wheels. Which is wierd....

i've used the Performance Friction pads from Autozone for the past year or so....worked well for me on road course events and autocross....not expensive either

Less dust is good. A while ago, someone said all good pads give off a ton of dust. The brakes on my car now dust real bad, have to wash the rims 1-2 times a week.
