VW solid rotor front brake pads

[dave parker]

Hi
For those of you who are racing an A1 Volkswagen with solid front rotors.
As you may or may not know Hawk Performance Brakes has discontinued the HB189E.760 (Blue Compound) brake pad that is the correct thickness for the solid rotor cars.
My employer is a Hawk Brake dealer. I have asked Hawk Brake if they will make a production run of these brake pads, they will make them,but I must commit to buying twenty-five sets.
I will make the price as low as possible.

If you are interested in some of these pads please feel free to contact me at dave at kingratmotorsports (dot) com or call me at 540.955.9696.
Thanks
Dave Parker

This pad being discontinued does not effect you. Your car is a vented rotor car that I have pads in stock for.

Can't we use the vented rotor pads on non-vented? They would just be thinner I'm interested in a set.

I'm wondering about this myself. I know hawk still offers .595 and .550 thickness. Will .595 thickness work well enough? Does anybody else offer the extra thick pads?

I currently need front pads for a solid rotor 1980 Rabbit ITC car.

TIG weld an old backing plate to the vented rotor pad.
