I will need to change the pads in my 172 soon and i was thinking about getting some pagid High grade-fast road front brake pads, the £50 ones not the blue ones that are about 100+. Does anyone have any experience of these or should i just put some standard pads in?
Yep but i bet every ren sport car is, i know mine is given death all the time and i mean limiter bounching, tyre ragging, brake smoking, speed bump jumping death......then i have to fix it!!!
