Re: Brake pads for SVX

Try http://www.rockauto.com, they give you a good selection for great prices. I paid a TOTAL of $45 for AC Delco semi-metallic in rear and ceramic in front, plus about $8 S&H. They fit great and work great!! That was like 8 months ago so I dont know how much they are now... I got em at closeout, but they are definitely worth a look!
