What's your favorite Pedal Set?

Hey guys,
I'm looking to find a smooth set of Aluminum pedals that don't look too ricey. I'd also like to know if anyone has found a good cover for the dead pedal/footrest. Pictures welcome.

Thanks,
Matt

Nissan OEM pedal sets are the best. 350Z pedals. Do some searching and you'll see why.

If you're looking for metal pedals, I think the RacePedals.com ones are nice. They're listed on their site at $65 a set (4 pieces) but there's a group buy price of $45 or something @ **********.

Not ricey like others, the price is good for what you get, and they're not "universal clamp on". I had so many problems with the clamp on ones eventually falling off, so these should be a good choice.

I agree... I heel-toe much better on stock rubber pedals, but if one day I get in that "got some extra $$ and I have to find something to buy for my car" I might get a set myself

Awesome, that's exactly what I was looking for. I actually had been to that site months ago. I was looking for those pedals and couldn't remember where to find them.

I'm not into racing at all so the pedals aren't of much importance to me. My 240 is a daily driver and my modifications are all either just costmetic or to make the car last forever while looking new the whole time. I appreciate your feedback.

Thanks,
Matt

Those are kinda bling bling, but they do look damn good. They are actually made for our cars, definately a great final touch!

Yeah, I think the ones I saw originally were the ebay ones. I remember that the ebay guy sold them with a matte finish as well as the chrome. This will still be smooth though.

Not ricey at all when you get them on the car. It kinda reminds me of ferrari style; you know, clean, but with a race feel.

Razo c/f's are pretty good... always have been since back in the day, but too many people have them

I really like the look of those Razos but I really like the metal look. At least for right now. I'm tempted to buy a pair of the Razos, see what I like best, and then sell the others. Or I could just keep swaping them out each week like a jagg.
