What are some good aftermarket pedals to use? Universal application. I dont' know if its just the way I drive or waht but my feet always slip all over my pedals in my car.

I looked into them for my supra, but I never bothered to get any. I wasn't convinced that the expensive ones were any better than the ricer BS at Autozone. :lol:

I dont use aftermarket pedals. When I didn have them years ago, they were no help. Try driving shoes (addidas-goodyears, puma's, etc) :dunno:

If you saw the ones in my car you'd be just as good driving w/o a pedal pad.

Puma Traklite's, they are as good if not better then 90% of the "driving" shoes out there. yea they are not nomex lined but they work great for me, and you can wear them out without looking like "A tool in his driving shoes" and for the pedal pads. stay away, there are none that are worth their salt. if you replaced the whole assy. with a machined aluminimum pedal, then you would get the added benefit of repositioning them as you see fit, and a lighter assy. pads are made for one reason to look cool. and IMHO that makes them not.

I've got little bits of grip-tape stuck to mine because my shoes always slipped off if they were wet.

That is an awsome idea. While it might not look that great the functionality is there. It also wouldn't be comfortable driving barefoot, but you shouldnt be doing that anyway.

+1 Yeah you can't drive barefoot at these events, according to the rule book.

yeah i think good shoes is mostly it. I wear topsiders, deck shoes, sperrys, whatever you want to call them. They have a flat bottom (and are thin so you get a much better feeling for the pedals), and are rubber. I've never had a problem slipping off the pedals myself really
