Post by lewd lude lover » Sat Apr 07, 2012 5:09 pm

hey guys,

The lude is booked in with rich to get a few final little niggles sorted and get the front brake set up put on.

the pads that are on the rears are about half way so i might as well get them swapped at the same time.

so recommend me rear pads from your experience please.

the front will be atr calipers, 330mm discs and hawk hps pads.

i will get a set of oem unless anyone has a specific brand and type.

cheers ;)

Use Hawks on the rears too. Im using EBC redstuff all round. Does the 330mm discs fit the ATR calipers straight?

I'm also using Mintex on the rears with OEM blank discs. They've been perfect so far 8-)

I have the Hawk HP+ on the front with Honda OEM on the rear. I havent tried anything other than that on the rear, I chose the OEM as its proven to be a good all rounder.
