Was gonna stick on 'red stuff' pads for less brake dust

Mine will mainly be for show and the occasional rake on 'private roads' haha

Any idea how theyll hold up

Definitely avoid red stuff pads and if your looking for low dust get hawk hps pads. They're difficult to find but worth it. As for discs I've tried the black diamond and ebc and they were both ok but are no better than mtec discs and the mtecs are much cheaper.
