RRE always has Stoptechs (and probably others) on the shelf. Located in Santa Fe Springs. Could get better advice from Sam or anyone there, than you will from your average SoCalEvo type person. just saying, not dissing anyone.

I'm will stop by today at around 5pm or 6pm. Do you guys happen to carry shims? I'm too lazy to peel of the old shims. What grease or disc quite stuff do you guys recommend.Â* Thanks for the reply

The name's Don btw

Stoptech and Centric both include new shims with their pads.
