Brake pads with polished rotors
I am replacing the pads and rotors on the front of my 08 king...I am replacing the rotors with some polished ones..wondering what pads you would use on polished or chromed rotors? And something that has good stopping power and low brake dust. thanks

Lyndalls Z pads. No dust and good stopping power. Period.

I use EBC Kelvars on my polished rotors. Some dust and good stopping power. About half the cost of Lyndalls. Period.

I've not have that much problem with the stock brake pads.

EBC makes some pads that are designed for polished rotors. I have nothing but raves for EBC pads.

The area where the pads contact the rotors will get scratched up in a hurry no matter what kind of pads you use.

KC International sells an organic pad that works good. 937-259-1736 or they are usually on ebay.

Thanks for the feedback! Sounds like the lyndalls are about the best!
