    Brake pads

    I'm going to order a set of front drilled rotors for my '04 GT.One set of rotors comes w/ a set of ceramic pads.It didn't mention the brand name,it just said "quality pads".The other set is just the rotors.Has anyone ordered rotors and recieved pads as part of the deal? If you have are these pads any good?I'm debating whether or not to order the rotors and pads or just break down and spend the $$ and get a quality set of pads.The difference in price is less than $25.00 so the $$ isn't the issue.Any thoughts,experience or insight would be appreciated,thanks.

    What site / place are you ordering them from?

    The pads are probably okay. Nothing wrong with ordering some good hawk ceramic pads or something comparable though.

    You should upgrade the front rotors to 13" cobra rotors if you are upgrading, not that much more overall, just have to buy front calipers and stainless steel brake lines
