View Poll Results: I'd like to buy....
SP rotors only for my Tundra/Sequoia- I'm a Subscribing member.
We have 16 people that indicated they want 18 sets of rotors.... (You still in for 2 sets, Ademadude1960...?? I'm buying another set of rotors/pads for my 1990 4-Runner.)
We have 13 people that indicated that they want 15 sets of pads....
I have 1 maybe for rotors/pads....
Is there anybody on the fence w/this buy...??? Any questions we can answer for you..??? Let us know......
Whats the difference between the Carbon metallic pads, and the HPS Performance brake pads?
Also, is there a photo of the "dimpled" rotors?
Is this the price of the rotors for a SET of rotors or a price of each individual rotor?
Thanks.

Hey S-Man,
They're close in performance and the Hawks would be a little less dusty that the PF Carbon Metallic pads is what I'm told. The Hawks get good reviews here and @ Tire Rack. The PF pads are pretty new here on the site. I believe V8Toilet liked them but thought they were too dirty..... KLS just bought a set so we're waiting on his evaluation of them.
Here's what the manufacturers say about their pads...
Performance Friction
Carbon Metallic® pads are our #1 selling brake pads. With NO CLAY fillers, theyíll stop quicker and outlast the competition three to five times.
HPS - High Performance Street
Hawk Performance HPS compound provides advanced braking characteristics to enhance your driving experience. This unique compound combines the safety and quality of Aerospace design partnered with the braking technology of motorsports.
Features
Extremely low dust
High friction/torque hot or cold
Gentle on rotors
Virtually noise-free
Much improved braking over OE
Long extended pad life
All prices are for a set of left/right rotors.... JB

Hey S-Man,
The last day to vote on the poll is this Sunday, the 10th. It looks like we have 19 peope that have voted and according to my paperwork we had 24 people who wanted 26 sets of rotors and 23 sets of pads. I think there was a few more peope who were on the fence.
To answer your next ? of "When would the last day to order at the GB price"..
As it stands now, Sat. April 23, would be the last day.
Please post any more ?'s since I didn't see your original post.... JB
