hay nemesis if you dont maind me asking how much did you pay for urs ?? i found them for $125+ shiping ?? good price ?

We recommend Carbotech Bobcats. Less dust, higher fade resistance, and a higher coefficient of friction than OEM or HPS. I'll have them in stock by early next week. $119 front, $89 rear. Yes, they are more expensive than Hawk, but they are also notably better pads. I also do sell the HPS for $130+shipping for the front and rear set, if that interests you. They will likely dust more than OEM though (they do on other applications, but I haven't actually seen the results on the RX-8), so be aware of that.

i wouldn't recommend breaking your pads. But I would recommend you use your pads to BRAKE. ;)

HB470F.643 HPS $60/set
HB378F.565 HPS $59/set

This is first item that I did not order from a Forum Vendor due to time constraints. I would highly recommend buying from a Forum Vendor first.

I suppose if your brake pads break those are the breaks.
