Never heard of these.

Find some info, reviews if you can.

But as another member wisely told me, there's nothing wrong with good old Bendix general CT, unless you want something really hardcore for the track etc..

For that price you can get QFM A1RM pads from a rally supplier in QLD. Forgot the name of the business tho

Never heard of those pad either.

Bendix has been getting a lot of negative reviews lately, even i have experienced problems with bendix's noise issues, there is a constant screech everytime i brake. But the OEM ones before were fine. I would recommend FUJI brake pads tho, they are fairly cheap ( About half the price of the one u listed) and made in japan. My friends use it and from what they have told me its wayyyyyyyyy better than bendix.

Alot of things are better than Bendix tho....

GSR Rally supplies the QFM A1RM pads and I think they are about $100 a set

Yup Bendix is pretty good for what you pay for.If you have a mate whos auto tradie, trade price they are about 55.00 bucks for general ct. If your not on the track 3 5 times a year then for why would you need race pads?
