time for pads.

my rotors aren't warped that i can feel in the pedal / wheel. would it be ok to just do the pads ? and should i stick with bendix or get some autozone stuff ?

I've done just pads before with no adverse effects. Should probably have them turned at the very least

stay away from the cheap stuff from advance, the "Silvers" they sell are just shiznit, they dont last but 6 months, and make a lot of dust

get the best you can, some semi-metallics, they keep the dust down, brake fade is less, and stopping power is better, and they last longer, brakes are one thing to not skimp on

i was hoping top get bendix. but the shop was closed. so i have to hit up autozone. ill get the beter ones. i was just hoping to take care of this without changing / cutting rotors. bc i am gonna do the 5 lug later this summer. as soon as i can get the wheels clearcoated by my buddies shop.
