Need advice on brakes
I need to change my brakes soon and I was wondering what were the best replacement brake pads for a Corvette. Im looking for quiet, not to expensive, high quality brakes. Any suggestions.

I, and many others, have Performance Friction Z-rated pads. I Love them. I do sometimes get a little squeak under light to mid brake pressure. They stop great, and Autozone sells them with a warranty. 69.99 front, 59.99 rear. :cheers:

I just put some Perfomance Friction Z pads on and they stop wonderful compared to what ever was on there before. The do dust more though and it really shows on chrome wheels.
