I bought oem replacement brake pads online a few years ago and I don't remember the website. I did a search and I can't really find anything. Where can I get the cheapest oem pads? I don't find performance pads necessary. somebody please chime in. i have a '03 TL-S btw

oem replacements are junk. Stick with genuine parts. They will tear your rotors to shreds and the stopping power is a joke.

pm Josh from ex. he got great deals on rotora pads

I *think* he meant he got OEM pads, as a replacement, from an on-line store (DCH Acura, Acura of Peoria, HandA, etc).

Try DCH, Acura of Peoria, Acuraautomotiveparts.org (Acura Carland) and Delray Acura. Also John Eagle Acura.

Some of those guys have e-bay stores.

get Akebono ProAct Ceramic pads, they are designed specifically after each OEM application, but make no dust and are a better pad...they are not expensive either autopartswarehouse.com I just installed mine, they are great!

No I don't want cheap "replacement" pads. I meant OEM pads.

Thanks for your responses. I'm going to have to check out those dealerships.

CJITTY, I looked at those pads on the website and they're $57. Is that for front and back? it doesn't say.

$57 usually is just front or just back. Can't be both. btw... Hawk's brake pad is good too.

I believe the front pads are more than the rears..I got all four EBC Ultimaxx Rotors and front/rear pad sets for $400.16 shipped. I believe the 57 was the front and the rears were cheaper. All I know is after 700 miles so far, I have no brake dust!!! It's amazing! I thought my OEMs had slight dusting, but these Akebonos are the shit!

CJITTY

Looks like $65 fronts and $60 rears....but these are the premium ceramic pads from Akebono. I had good luck with OEM pads, then got those shitty EBC green stuffs, now I have the Akebono ProACT ceramics. So far, the Akebono's have been the best for me.

I am going to be running Akebono Ceramic pads on my new setup. You can get them cheaper from Partsamerica.com (Kragen's website). They have free shipping and you can return parts at your local store.
