KVR is developing calipers to fit under the stock wheels. I have the email from the rep at home--I forget the exact date he was hoping to have something working by.


There are a lot of options out there for pads-

Comptech has the metal masters
Tirerack sells the green stuff and redstuff pads.
There's Zeal, and the others on Tim's site.
AEM makes read pads.

Strange thing is that with 37000 on my car, my pads still look really good and have a lot of life left in them.

How many miles do you have?

I've got like 27k. I do a lot of city driving. They're not dead, but they're not as sticky as they used to be and I'd just like to keep it safe.
