you should probs just find a local shop and buy them there... Support local, chose local!

Well, that Strom Motor-shop I go to kinda sorta IS my local shop... They're not ordered from anywhere, bought straight from the shop. There are a few little shops nearer where I live, but Storm is the biggest and has hands down the widest selection of everything straight up in stock, aggravates the heck out of me to have to order every single nut and bolt, plus Storm is the only shop that's open past 5pm, AND they clearly have the best service, those little shop guys tend to be somewhat arrogant like I should somehow be grateful they let me shop there... Anyway, I found the receipt last night and am going to swap today, I'll tell you guys how it went...

I went to the shop today and got the pads swapped, bought a pair of rear pads too and found out why you guys thought I had rear pads: they are very similiar in looks than the FA226:s, but smaller. I also bought a new front tire and booked a change and balance job for friday. I managed to talk to the same guy that sold me the wrong pads, and he told me he can`t touch the prices cause it`s just one shop in a big chain so they don`t have authorisation to give discounts, but he did throw in that rubber swap job for free so I guess I`m satisfied...
