Just Brakes does all 4 for $99.99.

I wouldn't use them, because changing brake pads is very easy. Buy Hawk brake pads and be very happy.

Mutually exclusive. You don't always get what you pay for, but you never get what you don't pay for.

Akebono is my preferred pad for passenger car applications.

Just Brakes does all 4 for $99.99.
Their average estimate is just over $700. Very seldom do they not recommend master cylinder, calipers and/or wheel cylinders. I've seen just such writeup's on vehicles that were still under the 3/36 mfr. warr. Often, these vehicles did not even need friction material, let alone hydraulic components. There is a reason Just Brakes will be around for a few years in a given area and then poof!
