Raybestos(sp) Ownz!! j/k I got them on my car, and it does the job fine. Doesn't sqeal and creates very little brake dust. IMO I would go with Honda OEM, only reason I went with Raybestos is because I got them cheap.

Punk I wouldn't know I haven't tried slotted since they are against the stock class racing rules

the rotors will have no bearign on the squel because it is the pads and the material that make sthe sqeeking...like a metalic pad will sqeuk more than a oem honda one because of the harsher material used to get a more "grippy" pad... aem pads on brembo blanks.....

slotted are slightly louder

my SiR pads are way louder than my LX ones were, and they ARE OEM.

My point exactly Punk... better perf pads have their disadvantages too, but when I haul on the brakes, it scares me how fast I can stop.
