No, I didn'tmake myself clear....

Pagid front pads for the STOCK calipers are $400.

Stoptech usually releases replacement calipers when the rotor is sufficient, so cost is less. Pads for the Stoptech's are also in the range of $400 (for 6-piston, $300 for 4-piston)but should last longer(less taper, larger surface area).

I'll have a go at it with the stock hardware at first, but if I'm going to run into issues...as these "sliders" often do, then I'll bite the bullet and upgrade.

Be good,
