Hey guys, I have the 2 piece slotted dba 5000 series rotors, and was wondering which pads would be best for slotted rotors. Thanks.

 

For spirited driving on a daily driver the Stoptech Street Performance Pads are a good set, they do dust pretty good but for the bite it's worth it IMO.

 

I would check with the dba vendor, or with dba themselves. I have to wonder if "metallic" pads might lead to excessive wear due to the slots. Generally, hi-po pads tend to have a high metal content in relation to OE-style pads.

 

What about akebono pads? Anybody try em?

 

Best is a very broad term and this question mostly depends on what you intend to do with your car.

 

Just. street use here, but I do drive/brake pretty agressively, since my rotors warped Lol.

 

Where can I get my rotors turned, cause I need that done too. The dealer?

 

Didnt think you could turn slotted rotors?

 

That's what dba told me to do, so I hope he knows what he's talking about.

 

Oreilly's . $15 bucks a rotor.
