QUOTE (hugh_b @ May 1 2008, 10:07 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I've ran both coust's and red pads both in cnc backings for quite a time now. I prefer the red's over the cousts, there's slightly more bite, louder honk hehe and great hold. The cnc backings are a must, they really improve braking like you wouldn't believe.....and look pimp too! I'd go for the reds. -Hugh perfect youve pretty much answerd it all for me even included the noise love it lol. ill wait a bit see other ppls veiws also though, thanks
