Hi there

I was looking into purchasing a set of brake pads for my 04 STI.

They are by PBR and they are the metallic ones which are the middle of the three that they have for the rear. I was hoping for some feed back on the type of braking, and brake dust that i will get from them? Also are they a good replacement for the OEM pad or should i being using something else?

I am happy with the braking performance from the car with the OEM pads and am not looking to really get anything more just a good set of pads at a good price.

I was also looking at the Hank HPS for the fronts would they be able to meet my needs also?

Thanks for any help guys.

I have heard good things about the Hawk HPS and they are cheap too. I run the Carbotech Bobcats and love them. My .02
