R1 concepts are nice , good price too. Check ebay or their website, I think they have a cheaper price on ebay though.

Has anyone here even used nice pads in the past? It really does make a difference. I was running powerslot rotors and Hawk HPS pads.

Re: time to replace brakes

what are some signs that your brakes need to be replaced, as in, squeaking, popping, and when stopping from high speed the whole car shakes... alignment maybe? i dont know when the brakes were last replaced, but i do know that the car has 138883 miles on it.

If it's constant squeaking then your pads may be getting warn out. You'll have to look to see if the wear indicators are hitting your rotors. Shaking can be a sign of warped rotors and I have no idea what you mean by popping.

It's kind of hard to diagnose brakes without being there.

You're probably right. Who would want shorter braking distance, better initial bite, and less brake fade.
