Default What pad is equivilent to Wilwood H

I need some rear pads (stock calipers) and no one stocks the 15H-8599K pads.
What would be a good replacement?
I'm using the Wilwood SL6 fronts with H pads.
TIA,

John

WW don't have any? If they do get them drop shipped from vendor if they don't sell them direct I can't remember where I got them.

I called Wilwood. I didn't realize that Wilwood sold direct.
It was more of an issue that I couldn't wait 2 weeks to get them from my regular source. I misread the Hallett schedule. Getting old I guess!
Thanks John

Try LG Motorsports. I used to get all of my rear H pads from them when I had the C5Z. Also try Todd at http://www.tceperformanceproducts.com/ . Todd has been under the weather lately so if he doesn't answer his phone send him an email He has been monitoring the forum.

If there aren't any pads available try Raybestos ST47s. I have been using them on the rear of my C6Z when I use H pads in the front Wilwood calipers.

I used H in the front for my Wilwood BBK and Carbotech XP10's in the rear stock calipers. Been doing this for years, works great!

Thanks Bill and Adam. I'll keep the Carbotechs in mind. I did call LG and they were out, as were 6 other shops. I just waited too long and needed to get them sooner.

regards,

John
