Check with Alon at Modbargins. He recently gave a review on the ones his company sells.

I just go to Carquest and get the better pads and rotors. Anything that starts with "B" in the part number, not "g". Trust me.

I agree, awesome combo. And if you're feeling frisky, get some stainless steel brake lines and Motul brake fluid.

I out the Wagner Thermo Quiet pads with the stock rotors on last night and so far I am impressed with the difference over stock pads.

or if you're feeling very frisky go with the stoptech's. Powerslot is the "lesser" of two slotted rotors from centric

Alon, I've got the Centrec PosiQuiets from you about 3 months ago and they are making a really bad squeaky noise already I pulled them off and theyre fine, but just squeaky a bit.

I too have PosiQuites and they started to squeal after the brake shop had to swith my rotors for the second time. I wont be going back there, they put slotted rotors on backwards. My buddy showed me how to do a brake job...needless to say I wont be paying anyone from now on! I have been looking for a better set of pads, was looking at the Thermo Quites or the Red Stuff or Green Stuff pads.
