Raybestos Brake Pads... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

tripleblack · 10-14-2005, 02:14 PM

I am looking into buying my disk brake conversion kit from EC and i understand they offer these new brake pads by Raybestos. I read that they minimize squeeking, and even better, they barely make any brake dust so cleaning your rims should be a thing of the past. Does anyone have these pads or know if these claims are true. If so i would love to know because i hate squeeking and brake dust even more. Thanks!

They sound like Ceramic pads.
I run Raybestos Quiet Stop pads on my 2000 GMC. I strongly recommend them.

I went with Wagner Quiet Stop pads on my '67 Rebuild project

Raybestos is the best brake brand in the business. I have over 7 yrs parts experience, and have not seen anything else that could out do them in all catagories

Go with the Raybestos. My parents own an auto parts store and they swear by them.

I believe Raybestos makes the current OEM pads for GM as well

On my K20 burb, I've found that Praise Dyno Brake pads don't squeak or give off brake dust that's noticeable like from carbon pads. PDB uses kevlar in their composite that's very heat capable and lessens the need for metal particles which, in turn, is easier on rotors. I've use them since '94. PDB pads are expensive, though I don't know if more than ECE's Raybestos offering. Not affiliated.
