Pagids?

[Brian O']

well, what kind of car is it ?? we used the cryo
rotors on the front of our a4 1.8. they were a8 ones,
they worked very well, they were slotted. you dont
want drilled rotors on the front of an audi, there is
no air flow and way too much heat. we had drilled on
the rear, that worked very nice. we also had 993 n/a
caliperd on front. we had p/f 90's in front and hawk
blues in back. worked very well. i have the blues on
the rear of my 90 right now for the street, i love em
!! we had the pagid rs4's ( orange i guess ) on the
front first, and they sucked !!! they faded very
easily, even with the 993 calipers. if p/f make a pad
for your car use it !!! they are the best out there,
other than hawks, but you have to be rich to afford
rotors every weekend !!!!
