Are organic brake pads available?

[xx88man]

I am looking for organic brake pads. All I can find seems to be metallic or semi-metallic. I read somewhere that original rotors are not designed for them. Since I will be using my original rotors I am looking for organic brake pads. Does anyone sell them?

Did you try the economy section on Rock auto ?

[xx88man]

Yes the only pads they show are metallic or semi-metallic

 then I would use a ceramic such as Powerstop

You have the original rotors? Wow. Must be a really low mileage car.

Still under 44000 original miles

Any idea who sells these?
Does anyone else have a car with original rotors and what are you using for brake pads?

I'd rather have a car that stops well and accept that the rotors will eventually need to be replaced...
Yes metallic pads are hard on rotors, you'll probably only get 60k miles out of a set of rotors... It's not like they will be destroyed in 5k miles... 

So considering you have 44k on the rotors already with organic pads you'll probably see over 75k before the rotors need to be replaced.. How long for you to put 30k miles on the car?

Good point. Thanks for the help guys

I used the info I found in Tom Condran's "Mopar Performance" upgrade book. I have organic pads that were ordered in from Autozone. I have '78 Córdoba rotors with Diplomat calipers. At least for me anyway, I couldn't get enough heat in the rotors during routine driving for the semi metallics to work well. Went to organic pads and they work much better. I don't tend to drive the car regularly with enthusiasm, but when I do it stops great. My daily drivers are a Honda and Acura with ceramic pads, but much thinner rotor thickness. They get hotter quicker and stop good. This is just what works for me.
