Metal Master pads from RRE

Highly recommend them they bite and I've only managed to fade them once at the track left foot braking. So you know they can handle the heat hehe...

I have Axxis metal masters and do not have much complaint with them. They do have their good share amount of brake dust though. You can also look into getting some EBC, Hawk, KVR, and if you really want some performance pads, there's the Porterfields.

I got metal masters too and I like them. About to put new ones in. Get em from RRE, 55 bucks - we gotta support good companies that offer great customer service.

Hades, since you do a lot of autocrossing, I figured you were running some better pads? Have you considered the Porterfiel R4E or R4S? They're around 100 bucks though...
