Hello all,
What brake pads are recommended for a 1990 Lotus Esprit SE? I'm in the US, I never track or race the car, so I don't need racing pads.
I'm asking this question because, when I searched the forums, the most recent infomation posted was from about 10 years ago, so I'm looking for more recent advice.
Has anyone tried the Centric 10505270 Posi-Quiet Ceramic and how are they? (They also make a Posi-Quiet Metallic) Is ceramic or metallic better? The Centric pads keep showing up as the only choice on parts sites such as rockauto.com, carparts.com, buybrakes.com, partsgeek.com.
All that JAEparts.com and rdent.com sell are the EBC Yellow ones, and I don't race, so I don't need those.
Some have said Porterfield are good. Is that still the case? Porterfield R4-S cost more than 3x as much as the Centric pads -- is it worth that much extra?
Thanks in advance,
Dan
