I've been researching new spinning reels as my decade old versions are currently running a little rough.  The Pflueger Supreme has an oiled felt drag while the Pfueger Supreme XT has a carbon fiber disc drag for 50.00 more.  Could I replace the felt drag pads of the Supreme with purchased carbon fiber drag discs?  If that is a possibility, where and how much would fiber drag discs cost?  (Is it just a better idea to pay the extra 50.00 for the Supreme XT?)  Thanks for the education.

DVT can get you the carbontex drags at a great price. I can't help ya with those reels no experience with them. I will say the drag upgrade is well worth it especially for light line techniques. 

Drag kits range $7-10 for most models. 

Shipping cost is actually a lot more than the price of the pads.

Multiple lots I ship free. Single kits postage only.
