can you suggest brake pads for an STI that bite just as well as OEM but put out less dust?

I would recommend either the Stoptech or the HPS, both are good performing pads with great initial bit without the dust. Some claim that the Stoptech's will dust more than the HPS.

i used to buy from Ken in his garage 4-5 years ago. Its cool to see he's doing well.

That said, Carbotech pads are crap. I'd recommend Hawk DTC-60s or HT-10s for track and something cheap for street pads. I've been using Stoptech Street Performance street pads and they've been great and very cheap. Hawk HPS are way too expensive for what they are imo.

i don't see anything for Jeep on your website. Can you order front pads and rotors 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the 5.7L Hemi? If so how much for the set?

^^I bet to differ. Carbotech track only pads have served me very well.

We don't stock Jeep pads, you would have to give us a call to place that order. Depended on which pads and rotors you want it can take a week or so to get in since they will be coming from CA.

On the Carbotech discussion, I wouldn't say they are crap, I just don't think they last as long as the DTC-70s or 60s. And they are more expensive, but the upside of them is they are more rotor friendly.
