Lomandi brake

Anyone have experience with these pads? I've heard they are Canadian base company. Darn cheap too, but no one is yet to do reviews about it, and I am thinking of buying them to try out. Any ideas?

They are pretty shitty even brand new, can't imagine what they're like when they get used for like 6 months...
don't use them on your daily or the car that you're planning to keep for a while.

"economy" pads.

dirt cheap, but you get what you pay for. if you're just asking for stop and go, theyre fine.

I have them. No complaints, they are straight up replacement for stock economy pads; only benefit is they are cheap and the guy delivers (nice guy too).

Would recommend.

Running the rotors by Lomandi, used for one track day. They are definately worth it if you want cheap stuff (ie: track abuse which you can switch out when they are done).

Very nice guy as well.
