Default Cheap Brake Pads Anyone?

Where is the cheapest place to buy brake pads? Is it better just to go through Hot Seat and get a set of EBC pads? I was interested in the EBC pads made for sand and mud since that is what we ride in the most. I go through the stock Polaris pads really quick. Looking for something that will last longer. Cheaper wouldnt hurt either. Thanks for any help!!

Belive it or not but the best buy you will get on brake pads is the Polaris Extreme Duty pads.Tried them all and for the cash they are the best and not that expensive.

there are quite a few different brakes on ebay, Polaris factory brakes, not sure if they have what you need....

so what is the difference in the Polaris Extreme brakes? I'm pissed at Polaris anyways, talk about **** poor customer service.....I ordered a Front Rack for my '05 700, says it is in stock....I get it in, they shipped me a Rear Rack, dumb asses....so i contact their customer service, they say they elevated to their 'head' office and will respond in 4-5 business days, so I call them today because its a week, they say they haven't heard back from the other dept and are supposed to be shipping me the correct rack and what to do with the other one, but they can't say whether its been shipped or not....i tell them that means its not shipped....**** poor service...

The Extreme Duty pads are harder than the stock and last longer.I have gotten up to 3 yrs of mud and water riding from a set.The front are $30 for both sides and $30 for the rear.

Be careful buying on eBay. I love eBay, but bid on a front "set" of brake shoes for about $26 and when I received them there was only enough for 1 wheel. Contacted the sell and he said that was a set, and I need 2 sets for both wheels. Butthole.
