Anyone have experience using these pads? I usually use Hawks or Porterfields... just exploring options.

I actually know the owner of cobalt, andie lynn, met him when he came to see my C sport racer for his friend in ohio.

I called him when I needed pads for the 914. Well he knows his stuff. Never did a 914 before but I just had to tell him the weight and power of the car and he knew what to give me.

IT-R spec compound for the front and plain jane axxis pads on the rear. Have driven sebring long and short course so far and I am amazed by these pads and the brakes in general.

We run the stock solid rotors all around, 2088 lbs wet. Car stops better than my Carrera S with pagids. Never any fade or soft pedal. Mind you, I do have a stock 1.7 with FI.
