for a '99 sport...

i have bought grooved disks, just need to get some pads now...

i know most 'uprated' pads are good for cutting down brake dust, but what brand of pad doesnt squeak when cold??

Don't bother with performance stuff. Just go bigger. i.e. 2.0 brakes or V6 brakes.

my disks needed replacing so i bought some grooved ones so they look abit more presentable

i have a brand new set of standard pads, was going to use them but thought while i was at it, but if the only difference is less brake dust i might not risk the brakes squeaking with other pads...

hmmm, i just dont want squeaky brakes - i have squeaky brakes for all the wrong reasons at the mo (they're shot)...lol
