      Pad recommendations

      Been a while since I needed to buy pad for my calipers. They are the basic large GM single piston calipers. Car will be street driving. Basically it's a pro street cruiser. Any recommendations on pads. It's a 4 wheel disc setup with single piston calipers all around.

      Decided to go with performance friction ceramic street pad.

      I figured since it's not a road race car I didn't need any "special" pads.

      I have the same brake set-up on my 65 Skylark. I went with the EBC red stuff brake pads. They have been working well with very little dust.
