For those of you guys who"ve bought green stuffs before, is $95 from a brake shop a decent price? I know they're 85 from minisport, but its the same with freight. Anyone paid less?

Oh and whats the ultimate test on whether the disks and the pads are still ok go? They squeek (anti squeel shims are gone?) but the pads seem to be ok and the braking is usualy good, but is a bit innacurate at times.

Yeah that's a good price. Last set cost me $93 from Autospeed, and that was 2 years ago. :wink:

Damn 93? And I was gonna pay 95 like a sucker.

So what thickness is the minimum on my existing pads (standard coop S prob) and what about disks?

Autospeed don't sell pads anymore, and that price was + delivery too I think. :cry:

Min pad thickness is 1.5mm I think but I bin them at 2mm.

S rotors are 9.5mm (3/8") thick when new, min thickness is 8.0mm.

Yea 95 seemed a very decent price + even the brake place guy was surprised when he got the quote over the phone.
