    9227c

    Looking to find a set of good pads for this ? Now using dealer supplied "GAP" brand of products and find they are not as good as my old set I had a few years ago but can't remember what brand it was. I work in a dealership so need to purchase myself then prove why I need a different product 21.99-24.99$ per pad is what we pay now .

    You can buy a six pack of 6.5" Lake Country foam pads, which have set an industry standard, for $45, or you can spend $22-25 PER PAD on what you're currently using.

    I'm having a hard time trying to think of more proof that you need a different product.

    You would think costs savings alone would be a good enough reason to switch products. Let alone increased performance/longevity potential.
