Default Quick question

Hey guys
Just a quick question. I drive a ST170 and needs new brake pads soon. I was just wondering roughly how much would this cost? What brand should I get?
Thanks for your help

The genuines on an ST170 are mind blowing, I know that much. Price wise, not sure, just call your local Dealer to confirm. They're almost the best bit about the car - brakes.
