what's the life span on ceramics? the originals lasted me 92k do that should give you an idea how I use my brakes. Doesn't CT sell more than 1 type of pads? which ones are you talking about? motormaster or something?

Why is everyone recommending ceramic pads? Don't you realize that they wear down your rotors faster?
Go with OEM Honda -- whose pads are made by Nissin, which also manufactures the pads for AEM. They're an organic compound and are a good balance between wear and stopping power -- perfect for the street.
If you want a bit more bite, try a carbon-metallic compound like the ones used in Hawk or Performance Friction pads.

you want cheap pads? try maxi pads, i hear they are great performance for cheap 4.99 four pack (the ones with the wings have that extra bit of leakage protection)
why does everyone expect everything good to be cheap. you want performance but you dont want to spend a fourtune...something doesnt fit here

green stuff is ..well green, and they aren't that great!! i'd rather get oem pads! but than again honda pad are made by nissin and they're amazing!!! u might want to think about getting carbon fiber pads from KVR or Carbon ferro pads from hawk (HPS for street) they're both very good pads!! and the kvr is cheaper than oem pads and the hawk is around oem prices! pm me if u want more info! i tried 12 different brands and material pads on my car, i think i know a little about brake pads!

ok seriously conatc williams performance friction and get their pads you can also get them through a dealer like wheel and tire zone. most of my racing friends that have them, have been in total disbelief as to how well they work.
Williams performance friction has sold brake formulas to most of the big names in brakes, however the best performing formulas they use for their own line of pads... they are definiately something to use I hear.. I'll be using them up front on my car with Monroe shoes (that I know williams created the formula for) in the rear. I'd use williams stuff in the rear if they made brake shoes... right now it's just pads...
