brake pads for solo suggestions.

Hi guys, just a quick poll. What pads are everyone running for solo use? Ive tried hawk hps, and wasnt too impressed with their initial bite. Any luck with satisfied? Theyre cheap! Any others. I wanted to see if anyones had good luck, instead of throwing money out there. Thanks. Ryan

I heard everyone talking about AEM Pads are amazing for daily driving. I thought HWK Pads were good but people say they dust too much. i heard about these Carbontech pads are amazing and im actually trying to get a set.

Solo 2? I would think you go after "street performance" pads. The speed is low at Solo 2. But that is the thing about Solo 2 is that, by the time you go on the run, your tires and pads are already cold, so you almost need something that will heat up faster, since you can't do burn outs to warm up your tires.

True, Ive found the Hawk HPS require too much heat to work right. Its wierd the Hawk HP plus is a more harcore pad (although Ive only tried the HPS) but it has better cold bite.
