David, with as many time as you called me a girly boy, I'm beginning the think you might derive pleasure from being spanked by Oprah!

Even if it were true, it would only be once! You know as well as I do that once they find out you like something, it will never happen again

Just got the Hawk Blacks via UPS this morning. Also ordered new front rotors from Performance Products. They actually had the lowest prices at $61 per rotor. I think they're tired of losing business to Vertex. Thanks for all of the input and advice on a subject that's been beat to hell.

Ted

Just curious, was that with the PCA discount? Also, Vertex prices on the website are generally a few $$ more than the ad in Excellence.

stock pads wouldn't heat up enough with my mainly Hy driving. I use "Axxis soft" now. They work great when cold.
