Thanks for posting. For pivot shoes in this style with a white break pad, we have recommended our 15-178 in the past. It is a little closer to your 9/16" thickness at 17/32". It may not seem like much of a difference, but you would be surprised. I would recommend carefully remeasuring your shoe thickness to confirm that this would be a better fit than the 1/2" thick 15-188.
