whats the difference between the pads:
top in picture is police spec,bottom is standard

they do cost a bit more ie: $176 (instead of $70 for DB1331 - Bendix CT)
but well worth it..
Still ridiculously overpriced though!

I already had Bendix ultimate Police spec. There is a definite improvement even on those.

Happy as a pig in sh$t. Infact hapy enough to buy a second set to have sit in the shed for next time.

Had all 4 rotors and pads replaced about 300 to 400 kms ago. I think they are dimpled rotors, they have little 1/2 deeps holes and slots in them. Nocall the way through. Its for looks I guess.
See pics attached. I have always since the install had steering wobble. After 6 or so weeks its now worse. The guy that put them on said its the way these rotors are. On heavy breaking theres no wobble only light to mederate braking. Is it warped discs or is he right, its just the way these rotors/discs are. If so I think I will go back to just the normal flat / full surfaced ones
