    Need new pedals. Get stock or serious ones like Turners?

    My pedals are pretty worn. Some of my shoes simply slip off. Kind of worries, me, slipping off, crashing, dying, etc.

    I did a search online, found ultimate pedals, but expensive. You can't seem to buy sets. Only one pedal at a time, OR both clutch and brake, and the gas are separate. Comes out to close to $200. Nope.
    Turner has nice pedals at $109.95
    Bmw pedals from bmwpedals.com looks really really nice, and those are $114.95
    BMW AC knock offs are $50 on ebay. but those only have a couple strips of rubber. With that id rather get stock replacements.
    Actually, speaking about stock replacements, those are like under $5 each.

    What worries me though, is this. Will these performance eat up my shoes every couple months? The Turner ones have tiny sharp pyramids that "bite into your shoes for MASSIVE grip@!" that sounds like my shoes will last a month at a time. That would suck.

    I assume same with bmw pedals.

    Or do they?

    What are some other options? At $100+ seems a bit expensive. I still gotta build an exhaust, and save for insurance.

    What you guys think? What are your experiences?

    If you are saving money go with new pads. I track/autox my car and the stock pads work fine.

                ^^ wow thats a novel idea. Will try. How did you attach it? Took off pads, and attached/taped/glued to the bare metal pedal?

                  #9
                  Yep, remove the rubber pads, peel the backing off the griptape, stick it on, then use a razorblade to trim off the excess.
