Brake Pads?

Anyone have a preference on brands of brake pads for a '95 t/a with stock brake calipers? Looking to replace mine soon and want to get some that are less prone to glazing over time as the car sits alot andis only driven about 50 miles a year.

Thanks

im using green pads on the back, cant remember who makes them but they are green. they make a big difference. by the way, how do you only drive a car 50 miles a year?

I have some hardly used Morse ceramic front pads and duralast front rotors if you want them. I'm going to LS1 setup. I like the ceramics cause they don't dust nearly as much as the regular pads or the Hawks.

Can u send pics if you have em? Also, how much you asking as I may not need them cause I am going to try and bleed the system first as the pads I have are old but barely used? Let me know.

Bye the way I only drive the car around 50 miles a year as it is a collector/keeper - my baby car. Not sure it that makes sense, but I keep her in a storage garage and take it out for a spin on weekends a couple of times a year. It's been real hard lately with the arrival of my new son so she has been a little neglected and that's why I am doing some routine maintenance to keep her up to speed. I will post some pics tomorrow so you guys can see. Normal 95 t/a with a few mods. Thanks for your help.
