Girodisc's magic pads go for $150 (both front and rear pads)

"a few bucks"... looks like a few hundred bucks difference to me I can't justify nor afford to pay for things like this.

also that OEM stuff not only costs like made from diamonds it also does not work at least acceptable under hard driving conditions, i.e. track days or smth similar. Those pads are not worth that price. :-(

Just installed some magic pads myself. There is an occasional small, short squeak at low speeds, which I don't feel is a nuisance. But then again, I just installed the pads only a day ago, so I very much expect it to go away. So far, very satisfied with these pads.
