That is good information; are the C-Tek pads available directly in Canada?
You would think that with the same part number, the pad material would be identical but then I have to wonder why the two different names if they are identical........for different markets?
Anyone interested in calling the company to see what the difference is (possibly name only)?

Another question, is the C-Tek pad available for the Xfire? I know this was Chrysler 300.

My offer still stands if anyone wants to order pads and have them shipped to a U.S. address and I will bring across the border May 1 (hopefully declared as personal effects).

C-Tek pads are available for the Crossfire, I checked on line.

I have moved this info to the main forum and added to it as well, all new info I get will be added there.

Completely ridiculous for a $100. US purchase! I thought all the research had been done; there is no question that they are dust-free and equal to or better braking than the factory pads.
