can you guys help me with selecting brake pads and rotors.
from the forum it seems to me that thereis nothing than AXXIS (i found 2 different on ebay(gray and blue package)) with the price range of 89.99 + shipping for fronts and 47 for rears.is it normal price?
i would like to have dustless since i am bored of cleaning my wheels 4 times more often than the whole car.

thanks in advance

hmmm good subject, but I have a feeling you did not used the search button before posting this thread, so some people might remind you about that. But I'd too be interested to see what pads to use - don't mean to threadjack or anyth, just saying that this is something I'm interested in as well.

There are forum members here that can help you with aftermarket parts. I'm sure they'll PM you.
And to start, here is one source I got from another member.

we have some aftermarket rotors that are OEM-sized replacements, most popular have been the ones that are drilled and slotted but as another option that others have purchased are blank OEM style ones as well

Look on stillen.com

I got front and rear rotors for $380 shipped, they had some overstock sale going on about a month or two ago. They may still have it.

I went with akebono brakes, front and rear. VERY satisfied, as they have minimal to no brake dust.
