I use Pepboy's life time warranty pads as my primary equipment. $7.00 for a life time sounds good to me!!!

I was thinking of getting some titanium ti22 pads next time i do my brakes. They are required replacement for 11 state police fleets. Say there is less brake dust than semi-metallics and stop better. Sounds good to me for $24.
