^yeah.

Just spend the money to get good RELIABLE brake pads... The last thing you want is to be cheap about brakes. When you really need them and they dont work, I guarantee that the damage to your car will be more than 40 or 50 bucks

Here we go again, people knocking before trying them or even know anything about them

I had these satisfied ceramic pads on my brembos and loved them also. No noise, little brake dust which is more than I can say to some "hawk" brake pads. Seems like tirerack was the only place that sold them. Anyways, looks like they went bankrupt...

I never tried Satisfied pads but do know that I don't like the Hawk HPS pads!! I'll spend the extra $15 bucks and stick with the Project Mu pads, but everyone has their favorites.

i had hawks hps and i replaced them with the satisfied. satisfied werent some ebay brake pads. i loved their pads. very low dust, great stopping power, and no noise. they are very reliable pads and that is why i was looking for them again. but i guess ill have to find another alternative. and for $30/set on tirerack they were a steal!!

dont knock a product untill u try it. there were alot of positive reviews on the pads too.

was hoping they sold it to another company btu guess not. thanks guys

Quit being sandy about someone telling you the market is flooded with other brands just as good IF NOT BETTER.

At the end of the day a few dollars will net you safety. Sure those pads worked great for you. But wouldn't you think they wouldn't of gone bankrupt if their product was just as good as the other competitors?

Satisfied Brakes is out of business. Auction held last month. Kentucky judge placed injunction against selling their brakes in December because owners were caught bribing a Raybestos formulator so they could use Raybestos formulas as their own. Owners lucky so far not to have been charged with racketeering.
