Brake pads w/ no skates
Can someone point me in the right direction where I can get some pads with no skates? Need them for the fronts.

Check the KNS Brakes website. They've helped me with my brake system in my C5 track car. I'm a big fan of Carbotech and DBA.

Hawk has some good ones. But in general, you can simply cut them off of whatever you choose. Both my Camaro and my Cadi come with them by default. Camaro, because I'm running MRR Z/28 reps, the valve stem is right in line with those skates and would barely graze them. I cut them off. No issues. Many people have done the same.

I also run Hawk.
Are you looking for a performance pad or stock replacement?

Everyone I've seen if there is an issue, they just cut the skates off as has been mentioned...

I'd do like everyone else suggested and get stock pads and cut the skates off.

Thanks everyone. I think I'm just going to cut them off, but now I know there's options out there.
I mounted 18inch wheels up front and U was like WTF. How tf did these manage to fit. Now I know.

Used Powerstop with their drilled and slotted rotors. Noisy and shaky. They had no skates. Replaced the fronts with no skate Hawks. Much better but probably should do the back too. Both were good stoppers, just always let me know they were were there. As opposed to the dusty Brembo's.
